I agree. I just want to have Outlook Express for Windows XP as my preferred news reader. It's really better than any other news reader.

It is still timing out somehow and restarting the bridge gets it going again. Â Â Bob Comer - Microsoft MVP Virtual Machine

Does not the new bridge v54 support Windows XP? Since I still prefer to use classic Outlook Express as my newsreader, better than Live Mail. The bridge can be installed on Windows XP with .net ...
Yeah, mine isn't staying connected either, but it seems to take longer to happen than before. Â Â Â Bob Comer - Microsoft MVP Virtual Machine

That explains things.  Thanks for all your work!   Bob Comer - Microsoft MVP Virtual Machine
