You're more than welcome!
I just about quit all of these newsgroups and went with the forums via the
Community NNTP Bridge, and then I see posts from you and others with a sense
of sanity about them, and decided to leave them on for a while longer. My
ISP carries copies of the MS groups (even the ones that MS has already
dropped), so I can continue with them even after MS closes them all until
there are no more new posts.
I don't know if it's the bridge or just the way they are posted in the
Answers and TechNet forums, but quite often I open a post and the subject
line and topic is much different than the subject line in the listing. I
opened one dealing with a video card, thinking maybe I could help, and found
that the article was about a network adapter. Go figure!
