I have not been able to view an posts for 2 weeks now, every forum I go to
is blank, the only way I can get to see any posts is by clicking "catch up"
then it loads a few posts that I can read, these posts then disappear when I
close OE.

Is anyone else having this problem, this has been going on since NTL
buggered up its news server which they say they have since fixed.

Hi,

I understand sometimes Outlook Express gets itself into a bit of a state and
corrupts its newsgroup database(s). I believe the thing to do is to remove
the newsgroups in question and resubscribe.

Hope that helps.

Best wishes,

Catch Up won't, or shouldn't download anything else, it should actually
reduce the amount of posts required to download.

To get new posts, don't use catch-up, use 'Synchronise'. This isn't on the
normal toolbar, but can be added by using 'customise'.
