Default Outlook Express opens connections to my news server on it's own!

I use Outlook Express for accessing newsgroups (like this one).

I find Outlook Express opens connections to the news server all on it's own
so that when I actually try to read or send a message I get errors that I
already have the maximum allowed number of connections to the server so I
can't read or send.

This is extremely tedious and can make using newsgroups a very frustrating
process.

Is there any way I can stop (or limit) this weird Outlook Express behaviour?

I'm using Windows XP Home with SP3.
