hi..
i realized that everytime i post a large message...this reamins in the forum
for 2 minutes...and then its deleted.....
as a consequence... i am sure i am not receiving enough answers to help me
with my problem....
can someone tell me whats going on?.... before i thought it was cuz my
message is very long... and someone suggested that i should enable outlook
express and use it to post the messages... but now i know thats not the
problem....

Yes, the msnews.microsoft.com server doesn't accept msgs above a certain
size. For example 50MB.
