No, never has and hopefully never will. You set up your news groups in OE or Windows Mail.

And if you're going to use the Microsoft newsgroups regularly, you might
want to consider connecting directly to msnews.microsoft.com rather than
Prodidgy's news server, which seems to add a very annoying little graphic to
the bottom of your messages.

I don't use Prodigy's news server. My news server is called "SBC News
Server". (Maybe SBC uses Prodigy's news server!) The "annoying little
graphic" (which I don't see when download the newsgroup messages) could be
because I have Hot Bar installed to work with my Outlook Express, and since
I use Outlook Express to access the news groups, Hot Bar automatically
attaches a "Play Games for Free - Click Here" message to my postings.

Then yes, it would be HotBar, since that is what is there, a 'play games for
free- click here' image. Very annoying.

And be very aware that Hotbar has been labelled malware by many sites with removal instructions. I would never touch it in a million years.
Do yourself a favor, download HijackThis! and see how many BHOs you have installed that can install key loggers, etc.
Nasty piece of software that Hotbar.

HotBar is adware/spyware. Why would you want to use it?
