Well, I don`t seem to be able to setup a news reader at all, and I find
on Google help
it says this-" Can I use a newsreader (e.g. Outlook Express, Netscape
Messenger) to access Google Groups?


Sorry, you can't use a regular newsreader to access our service. You
can, however, access Google Groups from most web browsers.

You can also subscribe to a Usenet newsgroup. Simply join the newsgroup
and select how you'd like to be emailed when new content is posted to
the group. You can receive a daily summary of posts or a digest with
the full text of the posts. If you select the full digest, you'll
receive one digest email for every 25 messages posted to the group.

I have had other members tell me they use news readers,but since Google
said this, I don`t know how.

James
