[[If a message MUST be posted to multiple groups, post a single message and
select all the groups (or type their names manually, separated by commas) in
which you want it to be seen. This is called Crossposting and when used
properly it is *GOOD*.
This question was posted individually to multiple groups.
This is called Multiposting and it's *BAD*.
Replies made in one group will not be visible in the other groups, which
may cause multiple people to respond to a question with the same answer
because they didn't know someone else had already done it.
This is a waste of time. ]]
With Outlook Express, which you're using...
To send your message to multiple newsgroups on the same news server, in the
New Message dialog box, click the icon next to Newsgroups. In the Pick
Newsgroups dialog box, click one or more newsgroups from the list (hold down
the CTRL key to select multiple newsgroups), and then click Add. You can
choose from all newsgroups or only those you subscribe to by clicking Show
only subscribed newsgroups.
You can send a given message to more than one newsgroup at a time only if
all the newsgroups are on the same news server. To post a message to
newsgroups on other news servers, create a separate message for each news
server.

No doubt this has come up before, but I'm new to newsgroups so I don't
know how to search the archives yet ...
Here's my problem .. I'm using XP Pro .. whenever (even after a cold
boot) I start a new browser windowusing IE6 SP2, it takes about 35 secs.
before the browser window will open .. the browser itself works fine
after that (and can launch new browser windows whilw surfing in a flash)
.. anyone encountered this one yet ?
btw, Spyware Doctor tells me no malware is present, as does Ad-Aware SE
Personal v1.06 (although the latter did find and delete 8/8 suspected
malware infections) .. however, problem persists after cold re-boot
