Microsoft has no way to actually "close" a newsgroup. All they can do is stop hosting it on their own servers. Pete

Most (but not all) ISPs provide newsgroup access. So its worth checking with your ISP. Failing that there are a number of companies which provide newsgroup access. www.giganews.com is one which I've used and can recommend. I understand that its also possible to get free newsgroup access from some third party providers, but I've no experience of those. -- Brian Cryer http://www.cryer.co.uk/brian
