Now the paranoia is beginning to set in. I suppose that we (addicts?) will
spend more time just looking to see if/when they disappear than worrying
about WinMe (and/or other legacy) issues.

Well Noel is on the ball there then, mind you I'll get all this lot again
in eternal-september and BT newsgroups so at least they are still carrying
it. Wonder if it will still work in those when Microsoft finally remember to
turn us off in here.

it should do - unless they decide to toe the 'official' line that the group
names are MS copyright, and MS has withdrawn permission to use them.
MS will make themselves a laughing-stock if they try to enforce that,
though!
