Why'd you post here, then?

You could have posted in a 'test' group:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.test.here

Microsoft's "Help for the Web-based Newsreader" gives this advice:
( http://www.microsoft.com/wn3/locales/help/help_en-us.htm )

"... Post to a test discussion group

If you are new to discussion groups, and you want to try posting a “test”
message to see how the process works, you can post to a test discussion
group.

1. Click the following link to open the Microsoft test discussion group:
http://communities2.microsoft.com/c...x?dg=microsoft.public.test.here&lang=en&cr=US

2. Click New , and then click General comment.
3. Enter a brief, meaningful summary in the Subject box so others in the
Community get an idea of your comment.
4. Enter a good description of your comment and include the version of the
product you are using in the Body box.
5. Review the text you typed in the Subject and Body boxes to make sure it
says what you want; you cannot revise your message after you click Post.
6. Click Post.
..."

Seems like the best place to test everything you want to test before posting
something that will be archived for an indeterminate amount of time in a
newsgroup dedicated to help on windows xp customization. =)

Not to mention that doing an advanced Google Search on this message.... has
me concerned.
Are you about to spam?
