If your ISP has newsgroups, then you can access them via Outlook Express, or
another e-mail handler with newsgroup capabilities. --Tom wrote in message ... I am getting rid of Webtv and will want to access rec.travel.cruises on my computer. How can I do this -- i have Windows and all up-to-date packages. Thank you, Shirley |

Tom is right and if you call your ISP, they most likely can help you.

I am getting rid of Webtv and will want to access rec.travel.cruises on my computer. How can I do this -- i have Windows and all up-to-date packages. Thank you, Shirley As an alternative to Micro$oft Internet applications you might consider Mozilla Firefox as your default browser, and Mozilla Thunderbird for E-mail and Newsgroups. The beauty of this combination is that it is completely customizable. As you become familiar with them, you can add on just those Extensions and Themes that you want. These applications in turn run faster because they aren't bogged down with a lot of stuff you don't need or want. If your ISP, Internet Service Provider does not support Newsgroups, you can access them via Google Groups or Train your web browser to: http://news.individual.net/ This is the web site of Free University of Berlin. They support a newsgroup server that you can subscribe to for free. I used to have an account there when I was using NetZero (which doesn't support newsgroups). Hope you find this information useful. -- ________ To email me, Edit "blog" from my email address. Brian M. Kochera "Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once!"

Thank you, Shirley Update: The German Usenet Server access is now fee based 10.00 EUR a year, roughly $14.00 USD. They could no longer afford to offer it for free. -- ________ To email me, Edit "blog" from my email address. Brian M. Kochera "Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once!"

I used to have an account there when I was using NetZero (which doesn't support newsgroups). news.individual.net is very good, but it is no longer free. The cost is somewhere around $10 to $20 per year and well worth the money. I find it to be much more reliable then comcast newsgroups, which I get for free. sue |

Thus spake :
I am getting rid of Webtv and will want to access rec.travel.cruises on my computer. How can I do this -- i have Windows and all up-to-date packages. Thank you, Shirley Usenet is not a website. Instead, it's a feed, supported by many computers around the world. Your first bet would be to check with your new ISP to see if they supply a feed. If not, I'd recommend someone like indivdual.net (www.individual.net for info). About $13 a year (10 Euros). You'll need a newsreader. I would personally recommend Agent. You can try Free Agent, but Agent has more features. Go to www.forte.com -- dillon I used to think the horse's name was Bob. And the angel's name was Hark. |

Thank you, Shirley Shirley, Go to Outlook Express. In the right hand top corner is the Microsoft Logo...If yours is set up as mine is, click next to that logo and" Newsgroups" should come up. There is a box at the very top that says, *Display newsgroups which contain.* Type in "cruises" and rec.travel cruises should come up..then hit subscribe. Good Luck and let us know if you have been able to join us. --Jean |
