day, to make you everybody else-means to fight the hardest battle which any
human being can fight, and never stop fighting"

Install and begin using an actual newsreader to view these groups.
Or use Google Groups to search for that person.

Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 is akin to bear skins and stone knives.

Do yourself a favor and setup a real newsreader.

Outlook Express came free with XP.

Use it.

You will later wonder why you didn't setup OE as your newsreader sooner.

Hey, Thank you so much Wesley Vogel & Shenan Stanley. All those

started from. To hard. Thanks again.
