Hi,
I use Internet News to read newsgroups but have a big problem!
When scrolling up or down the threads in a newsgroup the programme crashes
to the point where I usually have to turn the computer off. I can read
through a few threads, it doesn't always crash all the time ... but it's
always when scrolling through the newsgroups. Sometimes the
Does anyone else have this? Anyone know what I can do to stop it?
Alternatively, can anyone suggest a news program that is extremely
accessible with JFW?
Cheers
Damon Rose
