You are apparently using a web forum that just hoovers Usenet postings.
You'll have to refer to the web forum's FAQs for help with it. You
might want to try accessing Usenet directly, with a real newsreader.
Here is information about doing that:
Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is
really a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you
learn to use a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows,
but you can use Outlook Express since you already have it. Here are
some links to information about newsgroups:
