Hi,
When I get an email stating I have a response to a newsgroup posting and I
click on the link to get the response all I get is a blank screen. Does
anyone know why? I've even tried to copy and post the link into my browser
and still get a blank screen.

Also, when searchng for something on the newsgroup page how do I search for
an exact phrase like "Can't file file"? I've tried using ", +, and & between
the words and nothing seems to work.

Do yourself a BIG favour and ditch the horrible web interface. Use a news
reader instead.

This link opens a post for me, from you on 10/22 with that title.

If you can't open it, you probably have some corrupt files in your browser
cache. Open IE, Tools menu "Delete Browsing History" and clear those out.
