What's your newsreader Mike?  It sounds very polite.  Since I managed to yet
again lose the shortcut to 'News' in my copy of Outlook (and don't anyone
tell me it's in such and such sub-menu because it's NOT - I have actually
lost the physical toolbar icon - and for the fifth or sixth time)...anyway
I'm using Outlook Express and it just refused to log on. This told me there
was 'trouble at mill.  I'm just glad I only had to change the server address
and NOT re-enter my user name and password - 'coz that's something else I've
lost...and DFN.DE are crap at replying to e-mail.  When I do a Windoze
re-install I have to be sure to make a back-up of my News account settings
and then import them into the fresh install...

Really...how can you lose a toolbar shortcut?  Is it hiding somewhere ready
to pounce on an unsuspecting gif file.  Lose a file? - We all do that.  Lose
money? - Everyday and in lots of different ways  Lose hair - Of course not,
it just moves from one's head to one's cavities.
