The original link to Vista Discussions IS broken.
BUT, the link posted here WORKS. http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx You scroll down the list to: microsoft.public.windows THEN expand it for Vista Newsgroups And it works the same as the broken one; sign in via Hotmail Account. MS emailed me this link months ago, when it 1st happened. -- Mad Mike "Niall" wrote: I know that this is possibly the wrong place but here goes I can not sign in to the Vista news group like this one . all i get is the sign in button back on the screen in the top corner again after i have signed in. can someone please tell me what is going wrong? thank you Niall

I don't like the Newsreader way, either.
BUT, I don't tell posters to ditch it in favor of the Web Interface! Get real! You are one-sided, and biased! -- Mad Mike "Ken Blake" wrote: "Mick Murphy" wrote in message ...

... I could not care less about your opinion. I answered the OP's question. Blake shoves HIS preference down the OP's throat. That's nonsense, of course. I shove nothing down anyone's throat, nor could I do so here even if I wanted to. I express my opinion and my preferences, just as almost everyone else here--including you--does. And in this case I express my opinion that the way the OP does it is inferior to the way I do it, and suggest that he give my way a try. If he tries my way and doesn't think it's superior, that's fine with me. I certainly don't think everyone has to have the same opinion I do, on this subject or any other subject. But I do think that not trying the alternatives is foolhardy.

... Thanks Niall. Everyone has their likes and dislikes here. He likes one way; I like another. Niall, the above two sentence from Mad Mike are correct. But once again, before you believe either of us, I strongly recommend that you give the alternative I suggested a good try, and make up your own mind as to which is best for you. Almost every time I (and many others in these groups) have made that suggestion to someone, and the person tried it and reported back, he reported back that it was greatly superior to the web-based method.
