Hi - I hope this isnt too bad of a place to post this. For several weeks now
my principal desktop wont allow me to post to Office Discussion Groups. The
New Question popup never appears. I have tried all manner of other security
settings in case it is a blocked popup issue but they dont seem to help. Any
suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks

Nope - and the popup blocker report is blank.

I have a vague sense that this might have something to do with Silverlight
but I have removed that product and done my best to scrub any remains. Guess
I will have to bite the bullet and reinstall Outlook and delete all cookies.

Are you trying to post from the web or Outlook? Can you even post to
newsgroups from Outlook? I thought you had to use OE or Windows Mail for
that.

I guess I just don't understand how reinstalling Outlook would help fix a
web-posting problem.

Thanks Echo - you are right... terminal brain-fade on my part. I meant to say
reinstall Explorer. I have IE Version 6 SP2
