about MSN and usenet

So I took all that great advice from Kate and called MSN tech
support.............
well a fat lotta good MSN did me ! It seems MSN does not support nttp
servers cause he said " usenet newsgroups are fading and will be a thing
of the past soon!" LMAO! Well if that didn't trip my trigger ! So he
said he could help me set up outlook with an http or an s something or
other that is slipping my widdle mind right now anyway ......and
that it would not do me any good with these groups cause they require an
nttp server sooooo, I am between a rock and a hard place with my ISP
.....soooooo they who I pay can not help me. He did suggest I contact
outlook express tech support and even gave me an argh !, TOLL number
to call, which I have not as of yet cause I am still getting over the
apology I gave this guy for rippin him a new one for not being able to
help me set up outlook to participate in Usenet newsgroups, ( as if
this poor guy was MR. MSN himself LOL!) So, then I am talking to Mari
who says there is a good chance outlook tech support is gonna want to be
paid like 35 bucks to help me ! Now I am so very thrilled with this Idea
I could just scream
" what's that you said?" "I can." "good",,,,,,,,scream...... then she
tells me this funny story about her niece who did tech support for some
company and this guy who called her for help finding his cd rom thingy
......apparently she said "there should be a button , you push it and
the door will open", he says" oh I thought that was my drink holder ?
Really happened ! LMAO!
My next question is .....Is there anyone out there with MSN for their
ISP and using outlook? HELP! Bev

(if the news highlights a story soon about the crazy woman who murdered
her computer by repeatedly running over it with her
4x4..........that'll be me evilgrin

Thanks Nick ! I guess since the computer still lives I'll give this a go
......update to follow!
heh ....... Bev

I use MSN and outlook express, and read my newsgroups thorough outlook express

email me at pug [underscore] ugly [at] email [dot] msn [dot] com and I'll walk
you through how to get it all set up - however, I go through that german
newsreader? and you'll need a password......... i think i have a spare one
sitting around, let me check, otherwise, we'll get you set up on that as well.

we don't need no steekin' technicians!
