I don't know what Microsoft Internet News version 4 has for killfiles,
but you might want to download something like Forte Free Agent which
has excellent filtering. You can block by keywords in subject
(like OT, or by sender, etc.

Unfortunately Free Agent doesn't have killfiles (filters). More
correctly, it has them for the first 30 days but after that they quit
working.

If you want filters you've got to buy Agent.
