well i dont consider myself an internet guru, but heres how to acess a
newsgroup for _most_ people...
Microsoft Internet Explorer:
load borwser, and click on [Mail and News] button, select Read News.
A box pops up with a list of all the newsgroups ordered alphabeticly.
(if there is a two-frame window, click the [News] menu, and go to
Newsgroups...) Click on the one you want to read, and click the Go To
button, a two-frame window pops up - the top frame contains the message
titles, the inbox if you like, and the bottom one displays the selected
message. The rest is just like e-mail :)
Netscape:
I don't know, but i think it's something like internet explorer. I'd say
Microsoft wold have copied Netscape's setup (knowing Bill:)
Hope thats a help...

I'm going to make the assumption that if you don't know what a newsgroup
is then more likely then not you do not have Internet access. Anyway ,
if this is the case simply check out your local B.B.S.'s many of better
one's allow you access to newsgroups if they don't have the group your
looking for simple ask the sysop to add it most of the time they will.

Nope, your wrong... I've been surfing the WWW, using FTP's, chating thru IRC,
connecting with TELNET, etc... (i even was a point of a BBS) for about 2-3
years, but i have never used or connected to a newsgroup.
Bye,
