From: Peter Foldes on 4 May 2010 22:41 Date 5/4/2010 Starting in early summer 2010, Microsoft will begin progressively closing down the Microsoft public newsgroups to enrich conversations in the rapidly-growing forum platform. This decision is in response to worldwide market trends and evolving customer needs. Microsoft continues to invest in forums to reduce customer effort, consolidate community venues and make it easier for active contributors to retain their influence. Forums provide a healthy community environment with less spam and make answers easier to find by customers and search engines. Additionally, forums offer a better user and off-topic management platform that will improve customer satisfaction by facilitating discussions in a clean space. We understand that some newsgroups are still active, and important to the community. In the coming days and weeks, we will be rolling out tools and resources to minimize disruption to the community discussions. We are working diligently on providing additional resources and information in local languages later this week. In the meantime, please refer to the official Microsoft Newsgroup website http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/default.mspx concerning this issue. The Microsoft Newsgroup website will be made available in additional languages in the next few days. -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged. http://www.microsoft.com/protect "Leythos" <spam999free(a)rrohio.com> wrote in message news:MPG.264a8cce84c0c37f98a32e(a)us.news.astraweb.com... > In article <hrpvqq$jcl$1(a)news.albasani.net>, maxpro4u(a)hotmail.com > says... >> >> ms will start to remove all newsgroups from their servers. >> >> it has been a good run......... >> http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-20004109-56.htm > > Usenet groups can continue as long as other servers carry the groups, MS > doesn't have to maintain them or originate them. > > -- > You can't trust your best friends, your five senses, only the little > voice inside you that most civilians don't even hear -- Listen to that. > Trust yourself. > spam999free(a)rrohio.com (remove 999 for proper email address)

Can possibly send a control message to remove them. No self-respecting admin would configure his NNTP server to accept external rm-group control messages. And besides - Microsoft doesn't issue control messages anyways. Microsoft removed over 500 newsgroups from it's server last December - mostly low-traffic (or zero traffic) non-english groups. I checked some of the english groups and they still exist on non-microsoft servers. This group will still exist on the world-wide usenet after this so-called deadline (when exactly is "early summer" ?).
