Vista - Newsgroup downloading error

I have loaded the program and tried to add a news service and when it is
getting the various groups it hangs with an unknown error around 7000
groups. Any idea why?
It would not load the groups I want because they are further down the list.

Thanks for your help

Which program are you using?

Known issue, no resolution yet that I know of.

I was referring to Windows Mail and not the WLMD.

They have really screwed up things by mixing the products in this NG.

I don't care about their excuses for it. They screwed up by doing so and
continue to.
