I keep missing the OP in a thread and some complete threads - although I can
see them online.

I'm using OE6 - would that be it?


Chances are your news server is not doing its job as well as it might.
You may even see cases where propagation from some ISPs servers is worse
than for others. This can result in some individual posters being
dropped more frequently than others.

Would I be better off using Firefox to
read NG's?


It is unlikely to fix this particular problem. Switching to a different
news server would help more.
