How do I find other Newsgroups HERE ?
I used to be able to bring up a Big List of
available News Groups to subscribe to, but I
forgot how to do that a long ago.
Specifically looking for something to replace
Windows XP Annoyances which is now defunct.
I have to find out why an "Enter Password"
window keeps relentlessly popping up.

Wow ! I didn't expect so many responses!
I guess I need to explain it better....don't know
the buzzwords.
On the left of my Mail window is a pane titled
"Names".
In that pane are my e-mail accounts and "Local
Folders" and "News.Outlook.Express".
Under (within) "News.Outlook.Express" is
"m.s.seamonkey" - this group to whom I am
messaging.
A LONG time ago, I used to be able to get a huge
list of various newsgroups (?) with all sorts of
subjects in them to choose from - except I forgot
HOW to get to them.
This "News.Outlook.Express" has Mozilla and
Netscape as subgroups (right term?) - that is
all I can pull up with the subscribe function.
To be honest - I don't even remember how I got to
this Newsgroup ! It was set up ages ago and still
survives - as I do at 71.
I am trying to get to a group like this that can
explain why Windows XP keeps asking for a program
password w/o the program being activated.
It is like Win XP remembers an unrelated action
and repeats it ad nausium.

Better explanation.
I have a lot of stuff stored as Screenshots (jpg
files) of Bank and Stock Market data.
I have a program to view and manipulate these
files (Graphics Workshop Pro - [GWP]).
I have "Hide Files and Folders (HFF)" which
conceals whatever folders you set it up to conceal.
I have set HFF to hide the folders that the GWP
can read - so only I can access them with a
password.
I invoke HFF and it asks for a password. i
provide the password.
HFF opens and I click on "Unhide" - now I can
open GWP and access my secret files.
When I am done, I invoke HFF, enter the password
and click "HIDE". Then exit HFF.
Back to no one can see them - hidden (how I
don't know!)
Better ?
I know this is not for this Newsgroup - I'm only
asking HOW to find a Win XP newsgroup !

As mentioned by several people, first add a
newserver, then
to that server add the group:
microsoft.public.windowsxp.general
"As mentioned by several people, first add a
> newserver, I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DO THAT
then to that server add the group:
> microsoft.public.windowsxp.general AGAIN - HOW?" DoctorBill
I did a search and microsoft.public.windowsxp.general is on my Usenet
server. Most recent post today @ 11:51 AM.
I use Usenet-News. <http://usenet-news.net/>
You can purchase a non-expiring 2 GB block account for a one time
