IMO you should use Microsoft Communities {msnews.microsoft.com} for
Microsoft newsgroups and your ISP for others. Your ISP copies the newsgroups
from msnews.microsoft.com and may not be current.
To use msnews.microsoft.com you need to provide a user name and email
address. However, both can be any user name and email address you choose.
The email address need not be an actual email address and should not be your
real email address.
