NewsGroups Missing

Tahoe

I am running O2K3 and did as the instructions directed me
to find the GO command and then install NEWS onto the
tab. At first it seemed to work like a charm. Then within
minutes the NEWS disappeared completely! I even
uninstalled O2K3 and re-installed and still nothing!
Anyone have any clues???????

To get the News command back, go back to the Programs tab in Control Panel |
Internet Options and change the default newsreader to Outlook Express. If
OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch
it, clear the "Always perform this check..." box and then click the No
button.

You may need to reset the Menu Bar and/or restart Outlook and/or reboot your
machine in order to complete the process. Not everyone is reporting success
with this method, but try it and see what happens. If all else fails, you
can always create a desktop shortcut to Outlook Express and include the
/outnews switch -- that gives you the same result as accessing the
newsreader via the News command in Outlook.

Well thanks! This was the reason I had clicked always perform the check and
that's why I lost the newsgroup. Well it sure helps me for next time to
remember where to troubleshoot.
I am also having another problem which is with my Business Contact Manager
which you can see below From: Ta Nea. Do you know how to fix that problem?
Thanks!

I mark all threads as read when I leave a news group as do a number of
people. Your thread on that is now marked read and not visible.
