Recently all the posts in all my subscribed groups started showing up as
replied to with no original. Every thread starts with

I tried everything I could think of which was to remove all the settings. I
removed email and Newsgroup accounts and left them idle for a few days to
decide what to do. I have created new IDs now and all seems well except for
the previously messed up identities which I would like to use again. I added
new accounts thinking everything had to be fine now but those same IDs even
though they are setup to subscribe to different newsreaders and email
providers than they had been before still show the posts to be in the same
corrupt state as before. This does not occur with Agent Newsreader software
set up the same so it must be an Outlook Express issue.

Of coarse this is just one more issue that I feel has arisen from the
infection of the I.E. 7 malware update. My system has been puking on a
regular basis ever since that thing happened. I haven't found anyone with
this problem in any search of Google. Am I looking at a complete fresh
install of IE?

Thanks for any tips.

CW.
