On my last computer I had access to the "privatenews.microsoft.com"
discussion group. Although I have set up an account in my Outlook Express
similar to that in my old computer, when I try to access this group I get
the msg that the server can't be found. Obviously I have got something
wrong with the set up; can someone please help me?

Did you set up the username and password?

NNTP Server: privatenews.microsoft.com
Account name: privatenews\spyware
Password: spyware
