411 No Such Group

Since installing SP1, I think, whenever I try to use newsgroups, Windows Mail
finds the group, lists all the messages, then gives me a pop-up with the
above message stating the group doesn't exist on the server. I've tried NTL &
Virgin's servers, & get the same result.

I get the feeling some sort of newsgroup blocking is going on, but since I'm
the only one using this PC, I never use parental control or blocking.

Any ideas, anyone, please??!?
