I'm tired of sorting out the legitimate posts from the spam.

Can anyone recommend a good (preferably free) news reader that will
work with Windows Vista?

I'm not really a bit-head, so installation needs to be close to

Thanks, and will be seeing you...

Windows Mail works fine (don't let the name fool you, it handles
USENET just fine) and it's included with Vista. There's a freeware
add-in called "OE-Quotefix"
http://home.in.tum.de/~jain/software/oe-quotefix/ that addresses most
of the complaints (other than that "It's EEEVIILLLL") that people have
with it.
