newsgroup downloading error

I have loaded the program and tried to add a news service and when it is getting the various groups it hangs with an unknown error around 7000 groups. Any idea why? It would not load the groups I want because they are further down the list.
Thanks for your help DB

I was referring to Windows Mail and not the WLMD.
They have really screwed up things by mixing the products in this NG.
I don't care about their excuses for it. They screwed up by doing so and continue to.
