I suggest you post in one of the Vista groups for help with this.

I assumed that there were no vista groups because my ISP has none, and google
did not bring up any when I searched google groups for windows vista, this group
came up.

Web portal to the MS newsgroups:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx

Look under microsoft.public.windows.vista.

Easiest way is to access the Ms news server directly. msnews.microsoft.com

Here are the vista newsgroups.
microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_acco unts_password
microsoft.public.windows.vista.file_management
microsoft.public.windows.vista.games
microsoft.public.windows.vista.general
microsoft.public.windows.vista.hardware_devices
microsoft.public.windows.vista.installation_setup
microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail

I did and it was not there. None of the
microsoft.public.windows.vista.* groups
were listed on the above link.

Use the MS server, msnews.micrsoft.com It's free and you can use it any
news reader, even using Linux like I am right now.

You need to click the plus sign next to microsoft.public.windows, and it
show a list of sub groups.

Though why it should be there when Win2000, Win95, WindowsXP, WinNT etc..
are listed on their own is beyond me.

Yes it's hard to understand sometimes the rules they use for naming
newsgroups. I can't believe it would be something as simple as him no
clicking the + sign, though. I mean what does it take?
