I like Dialog, and I sort of like MesNews. I haven't tried either under Win8. You will get many different suggestions that work in Win7, and with any luck, many that work in Win8 as well. Try some that look OK to you and pick the one you like the best. It's very much an individual matter. -- Gene E. Bloch (Stumbling Bloch)

Per recent articles Firefox is the fastest browser out now. Thunderbird can handle email and newsgroups, and can be configured to do what you want. Lightning is a good way to schedule events and task, and notify the participant whatever scheduling program they are using

All you want to do is to post questions to these newsgroups so WLM is pretty good for it and it winds some people here at the same time. Of course that is the reason to come to these newsgroups. Ask Shadow about this. Kill two birds with one post!!!
