Hi,

Do you have a question?

Be aware that the forum you are using is merely slurping messages from
Microsoft's public newsservers. If you are interested in being a part of
them, it's far easier to use a newsreader.

Since you are using a web interface that sc****s Usenet posts and not a real
web forum, 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 (XP)
or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have it. Here are some links to
information about newsgroups:
