I am using Windows 98 with Outlook Express 6.
If I sign into Windows as an administrator I can use Outlook to access newsgroups. However, if I sign in as anything other than administrator, I can still use my computer as normal, and even send mail under Outlook, however newsgroup access does not work. Everytime I try to download a list of newsgroups I am prompted for my username and password, which I enter, yet the system gets stuck in an endless loop asking me again for username and password...and again. Any suggestions? |

Is a username/password required for access in the news account?
If not: Tools | Accounts | News | account name | Properties | Servers tab Uncheck "This server requires me to log on" Click Apply then OK wrote in message oups.com...
