If you could help me, I will repost it. I only recently upgraded to Windows XP. As you may know, it handles Japanese and many other languages very well if the user knows how to make the appropriate settings. So I have an E/J language bar as many Japanese people do. In e-mail my characters came out correctly when corresponding with Japanese. (The encoding was was set to "Unicode.") Perhaps if I had used shift-JIS or EUC the Usenet protocol would have passed it without problem. I'm not sure. Any help from anyone reading is appreciated. I am sure that until I understand the problem it will just come out as ???? again.
