When I receive a response from Windows XP Newsgroups in Outlook Express, I
can not open the link to read the response for my question. Is there a
setting that I need to adjust in options?

If you are using Outlook Express as your newsreader, there is no link to
open to view a reply. Could you mean something other than a link?

I see this is posted via the Web interface.

I assume that Microsoft's Web interface to these newsgroups has a
feature to notify you by e-mail if someone responds to one of your
posts. But instead of using the Web to interface with Usenet, you would
have a much better experience using a proper news client. Many are
available: Agent, Thunderbird, and even Outlook Express to name just a
few.

And since you're already using OE, why not configure it to access these
newsgroups? Then a simple Control+H will filter out all threads *except*
the ones you are participating in. For more info, see:

What you need to adjust is what group you post in. Do you see OE in
this group's title? No.
