Hi,
I'm just an 11 year old kid who happens to love to go to newsgroups alot.

Every single time when I keep going to go to a news group. some body keeps
doing these unsafe news posts which i don't like.

Is there any way to block news groups senders

"unsafe news posts"? Newsgroups are basically a text medium. If you don't
open any attachments (which shouldn't be posted, anyway) nor click through
on an Internet address, it's hard for me to figure what posts qualify as
"unsafe". Perhaps you need to select "Plain Text" or turn off support for
HTML and/or ActiveX in the options of your newsreader.

Most offline newsreaders provide a way to define rules and block senders. In
Outlook Express, it's on the menu under "Message" and is "Block Sender".

You're likely to get better answers on this, though, if you ask in a
newsgroup devoted to the newsreader you are using. This newsgroup is about
Microsoft Access Database Software, specifically the Report features.
