Please post this to a Windows newsgroup like microsoft.public.windows; this
is a .Net programming newsgroup.

It seems like there have been a ton of these posts lately. I wonder if
something somewhere is pointing to the wrong newsgroups.

By the way, my car won't start, does anybody have any suggestions? (-;

Unless most of these people might be like some people i know.

They see microsoft, and "public" and "general" and post there. If it had
like a "programming" or some keyword in it. I think that would take a lot
of those away.

-Matt... i'd suggest walking.

Try posting this to a windows newsgroup. This is a .Net programming
newsgroup.

I agree, but I doubt a name change would do that much good.
Like so many of my students, these people just don't read with comprehension
and/or cannot be bothered to attempt to find an appropriate group. I see
this kind of thing in almost every microsoft.public.* group I frequent, BTW.
Often, even if the poster is gently reminded and given the full name(s) of
one or more appropriate group(s), the OP never bothers to acknowledge or
post in an appropriate group.

While all of these things are true, I also believe that something changed
when Vista became available. I asked one post how he ended up in this
group, and he said through the Vista discussion group, and was unclear. If
you look at microsoft.public.windows.vista, there are not very many posts
there. Of course, not all the posts to the dotnet groups are Vista-related,
but I'm still sticking to my theory that something in microsoft.com
changed. We used to get one or two of these a month, now there are several
every day.

I'm now beginning to see what you're driving at.
The problem appears to be expanding exponentially.
