If both groups really still exist on your machine then your news administrator has not been doing his job. The original comp.ibm.pc.programmer group should have been removed and an alias created for it referencing comp.os.msdos.programmer -- if this has not been done you should have a word with your administrator. Anyway, this sort of discussion doesn't really belong here (try posting to news.admin :-). Ta, Gordon W. Day
