Hi, Pete.
Sure!
Assuming that you are using WinXP, and that you are not behind a corporate
firewall or otherwise blocked from using all of WinXP, just click here:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windowsxp.general
That one click should: open Outlook Express 6 (which is an integral part of
WinXP); set up a News Account for the Microsoft public news server, which is
free and does not require you to log on; subscribe you to this
WindowsXP.general newsgroup; download the 300 latest headers; and show you
the latest message so you can start reading it.
Later, you can customize OE to suit yourself. Explore both Accounts... and
Options... on the Tools menu. OE is both a newsreader and an email program.
You can use it for either function or both. Other programs are available,
but I use OE for both.
Try it. I think you'll like it. ;<)
