For the past two days, every time I have 'sent' a newsgroup posting, OE has 'frozen'. Some times I can 'unfreeze' it by selecting another newsgroup and then returning to the one I am currently using - but mostly I have to use Ctrl/Alt/Del to shut down OE and then re-start it. This is the first time I have come across this problem in over 12 years of using OE. Anyone any ideas? Kev
Try a File | Folder | Compact all and see if that repairs things. If not, then try setting up a new Identity and see if that fixes it. steve "Uno Hoo!" wrote in message news:dm1ijp$38s$1@news7.svr.pol.co.uk... > For the past two days, every time I have 'sent' a newsgroup posting, OE > has > 'frozen'.

Have you compacted your folders lately? File, folder, compact all folders? Might be a starting point. 12 years with no problems? Wow, that's got to be a record.
