You are having difficulties because you are using the web interface,
which is awful. Instead, set up a newsreader - very easy to do. I'll
give you links below but in the meantime, refresh the webpage by
pressing F5. Or use Google Groups Advanced Search and search for your
name in microsoft.public.windowsxp.general.

[cut/paste]
Since you are using the web interface, you may not realize that this is
really a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you
learn to use a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows,
but you can use Outlook Express since you already have it. Here are
some links to information about newsgroups:
