Micro-Soft Pop-Ups

Sorry - I know this is not really the correct forum, but I don't know where
else to go.
Recently, anytime I log a new question or comment on this forum, a pop-up
from Micro-Soft shows up.

How, and where, do I stop this thing.

Please!!!

Post comments to groups.google.com and avoid MSFT's awkward discussiong group
system. Note: posting to groups.google.com gets you access to the same posts
you see via MSFT's system, only it's more well designed, and there are no
annoying pop ups.

Or use a news reader (or Outlook Express), pointing it at the server
msnews.microsoft.com and the group microsoft.public.excel.misc

... or better yet, get a news reading program and an NNTP server. Once you
have used a good one, you will never bother with google groups again :)

Bruce: This is unfamiliar to me. Could you give me some info, or direct me to
where to find it - AND - can you recommend a NNTP server?

Link to get here with your newsreader (Outlook Express or other)
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.excel.misc

If running Windows OS you will have Outlook Express available as a news reader.

Point it to server msnews.microsoft.com for best results.

Thanks All:
Due to your input, I found that my outlook can be directed to Express, as
reader.
Once my IT department lets me out the specified port, I should be up and
rolling.
Thanks again.
