Re: Re: Still having trouble accessing Usenet

Assuming you have Win XP, when you run Start>Run>cmd, you should get a command
box that does not go away until you Exit out of the box.  Did you mistakenly do
Start>Run and then type in "nslookup privatenews.microsoft.com"  ?

Jan, I tried to do just as you suggested, but after I executed
this command, the black dos box window disappeared. I never had a chance to
read the result. Could you suggest a delay of somekind so that I could see the
result.

  In a command prompt window (Start/Run/cmd), type
        nslookup privatenews.microsoft.com
  that should give you the IP address you need to
  fill in. I agree this shouldn't happen like this, I have no idea
  what's wrong.
