I am using Outlook Newsreader to read newsgroups. I mis-typed the news
server and now I have a newsgroup folder that does not give me any news but I
cannot any way to remove. Surely there is a way to remove a newsgroup - any
ideas?

Outlook uses Outlook Express to handle newsreader functionality.

For Outlook Express support, you'll want to ask in the
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general newsgroup.

Since you're also using the web based newsreader rather than outlook
express, you might want to use
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...xpress.general
(or, since you're using Outlook Express for mail, look at the steps in
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/...groups101.mspx for
how to set up OE to use the microsoft newsgroup server).

So correct the server name. Toools>Accounts. Select the account, click
Properties.
