I guess I don't know how to setup my outlook client to use the news
link?  When I click the news link.  Nothing happens.  So, I tried
downloading this 'seamonkey' newsreader.  When I installed it, and
clicked the d-learning news link, a browser appears,but I don't
have any postings.

Anyways, I am using windows 7, if that helps.

thanks.
