Actually, the IE General Newsgroup is where I wanted to make my last post. I
did not realize that this was a separate IE area (but knew those were the
wrong groups in the "post to" choices).

The way things are organized here appear a bit chaotic to a newcomer like
me... and I am an experienced forum poster.

In a newsreader like Outlook Express the newsgroups are faster and it's
easier to find replies to your posts.

In Outlook Express go to Tools | Accounts | Add (or New) | News.
Set up an account for this news server:

msnews.microsoft.com

The server is free and does not require you to logon. This news server
carries over 2200 newsgroups related to Microsoft products and keeps
messages at least 30 days.
