Well, another Microsoft embellishment!!! No answer in 7
(seven) ... I thought following excerpt might hold
water; " Unlimited free support? Yes! Available now to
MSDN subscribers, MSDN managed newsgroups! In over 200
developer newsgroups, Microsoft will assure that you
receive a response to your posts within 72 hours! To use
this free service now, go to MSDN managed newsgroups. "
But, this is obviously not true. :(
I made my alias, I waited a few days posted as
directed and nothing, the big goose egg. Nice job. WELL
worth the money for the Cert partner/Univ MSDN
membership. NOT!

Way to be accountable MS,
Joe Johnston

These groups are not the groups for MSDN subscribers, I think.
 
Hi, Joe

I checked our records of no-spam alias requests for the last 2 weeks and
found no reference to either the last name Johnston or the alias
(e-mail address removed). Looks like we may have had a tool problem. I apologize
for the inconvenience. The easiest way to handle this would be to either
reregister or send your registration information to
"(e-mail address removed)", removing "NOSPAM." from the email address.
Please select a no-spam alias other than (e-mail address removed), since that alias
is already in use by multiple people in the newsgroups.

I found posts on November 6 and 7 that were apparently from you concerning
the creation of a Browser Helper Object, both of which received a response
from Herfried. If these were indeed your posts, please get back to us with
confirmation and I will get someone on the problem right away.

Thank you for choosing the MSDN Managed Newsgroups,

Todd: You mean from Joe or from Microsoft? Since I have no way to contact
Joe, my options are limited. I am on the alias I provided, so if Joe does
choose to respond, I will see it. If he responds either place, I >will<
respond.
