You must be talking about the web interface which is very poor for
accessing these newsgroups. Try using a newsreader. XP comes with one,
Outlook Express. Here is a link for info on how to set it up:

The reason you're having such problems is that you are using the web
interface to read this newsgroup--it's the slowest, clunkiest, most
error-prone method there is. Do yourself a favor and switch to a newsreader,
such as Outlook Express, which comes with Windows. See

Well I was okay with web interface,so if I don't have Outlook what I will
do,and why it happen now it was working okay forme,is there's new enforcement
to make users for newsgroups use the outlook Ex instead of webinterface?,I
follow the rules no Uppercase & lowercase to make difficult for user to read
my post.
thanks for the advice anyway,I thought may be the newsgroup changed or my
new printer would like to hack the platform.

First, don't mix up Oulook and Outlook Express. They are two very different
programs. Outlook Express does newsgroup, but Outlook does not.

Second, if you're running Windows XP, you *do* have Outlook Express, since
it's part of Windows.

Third, there are *many* choices of newsreaders and some people prefer others
to Outlook Express. Many are freeware or inexpensive shareware. I suggested
Outlook Express only because everyone already has it.

Fourth, *I* (and most of the experinced newsgrou users here) think the web
interface is the worst possible choice, but if you're happy with it, it's
your choice. All I can do is recommend what I think is a better choice. I do
think though, that, if you'd give OE (or almost any newsreader) a chance,
you'd quickly come to prefer it.


and why it happen now it was working okay forme,is there's
new enforcement to make users for newsgroups use the outlook Ex
instead of webinterface?

No, of course not. There are no such rules, and you can use whatever you
prefer. But if you're looking for help with the web interface, I'm not
someone who can provide it, since I don't use it myself.
