Hi All,
I'm looking for recomendations for a newsreader, ideally a stand-alone program, but I'll consider anything if you recommend it highly enough |

I use Google, but I know that's not what you're looking for
Since Outlook doesn't have a news reader, I have to use Outlook Express, and it ends up being easier to use Google
Anyway, good luck in your search |

Outlook Express is better than Outlook IMHO. Have Outlook 2003 Final on here (Fully Legal!), and much Prefer Outlook Express 6 for everyday use.
Normally Use google though, as if I'm doing some F2Support Work I'll just bung Freedom2Surf in the search engine for newsgroups, makes things a lot easier and quicker.
Btw, Peter, if your reading this I got a bounce into webmaster@freedom2Support.net as your f2s.com email address is over quota, no idea why I recieved a bounce tho as I didn't send anything. |

I'd stay away from outlook and OE, for many reasons (for one, they're so easy to crash - opening a message with certain HTML in it will kill the application) |
