Prolems with Outlook/OE newsreader after SP2 upgrade

S

I just upgraded to XP SP2. The upgrade went fine without a hitch. But now I
am having a problem when trying to read newsgroups using the Outlook
Newsreader. If I click on a newsgroup, it automatically jumps back to the
server name. After playing around for a bit, it always jumps back to the
server as defined in the default news account. How can I fix this?

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from the
Office
family for Intel PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting in one of
these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.mail.mac for the Macintosh version of OE

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:

I posted to this newsgroup because it is the outlook newsreader. I am not
using OE at all.
