I think I want to cry... *whaaaaaaaa...!* I liked these newsgroups quite a
bit. Got a lot of help from them even though I don't really post in them a
lot. I posted in another thread asking where to go if the Microsoft
newsgroups are closing. Actually, what ones are closing? or is it all of
them?

all of them will close

I've download the NNTP bridge that they supply, aint too bad just the
downloading of the messages takes a bit longer initally

"You can find instructions on how to download and set up the NNTP Bridge
