First the problem has nothing to do with OEQB.
Second, yes it would cause a problem when you restored them.
However, you can rename then before starting OE to the proper name
OR
There should be another setting that will allow for the long filename on the
CD. You would have to check Nero's documentation for that. Should be in the
ISO tab unless you are using the Wizard to burn the CD.

That way, you can reuse the newsgroup with no loss.

Or you can unsubscribe but any other filename that is similar in length will
cause similar problems.

Just remember before you restore, put the files in a backup folder, then
open it, CTRL A to Select All then right click on them and select
Properties then uncheck the Read Only attribute as OE will not read those
files when you restore or should you just import the mail, it won't read
from the CD and it also won't import from CD. That's OE, not OEQB.
