Broken newsgroups

My microsoft.public.windows newsgroups seem to be broken. After I post a
question, I may see at most one reply. My reply to it is no more seen and
that goes for whatever other replies I get. I have to go to google groups or
the microsoft websites to see the rest. Is there anyway to repair my
newsgroups?
TIA

Why ask here? XP has no native ability to read newsgroups.

Ask elsewhere

But Outlook Espress has, and isn't OE part of XP ?

To Ben.
Have you used or are you using OE to read newgroups? I find it easy and very
similar to reading email

Re: Broken newsgroups

Your solution was absolutely correct. Now I have got them all back on OE.
Thanks so much.

So what do you think Outlook Express does which is supplied as part of
Windows?

Yes. Outlook Express is installed as part of the Windows XP suite and is
therefore part of Windows XP.
