While we're on the subject, can you recommend a decent freeware email
program

For Newsgroups, Gravity and Free Agent are both known to be good. For
email I use PocoMail (which I paid for, but a trivial sum); other
contenders include Eudora and the mail component of Mozilla (which of
course also does news). Others will have more recommendations (count
on it!), I use Agent and PocoMail, both paid for and both worth every
penny IMO.

Before you tell me that MS programs are rubbish (or ****e, or wank, or
any
other expression) I'd just like to defend Microsoft on the grounds that
they
make the best games console.

If only they wouldn't pretend to be an enterprise software company and
concentrate on the toys, I think we'd all be a lot happier (apart from
the antivirus firms).

I'll put up with XP, IE6 and OE just because
Halo is fantastic and PGR2 is wonderful.

Opera is better than IE by an order of magnitude, IMO.
