Thanks for answer my question, but i never used a news provider. I wont to
access it from msdn.com, like this Managed Newsgroup. Since a couple of
months there was a entry compactframework. Where is it? Or where i have to
use the link from you?
I still recommend going to msnews.microsoft.com directly instead of using
a web interface. It is the same newsgroup, but msdn uses a web interface
to communicate with msnews.microsoft.com.
For a simple and intuitive news reader you can download the Opera web
browser (www.opera.com) and add a subscription to the microsoft newsgroups
under Tools->Mail and Chat accounts.
There are plenty of other good news readers to choose from as well,
including Outlook express (which is not so good though).
