This is not too intuitive - especially given the long history of groups
under names like microsoft.public.windowsnt, microsoft.public.windowsxp, etc.
but I'm sure someone had a reason why this really was more intuitive...
Hope this helps others...
Those are part of the Microsoft forums - no newsgroup equivalent for them. You
are on the web interface for the Microsoft nntp newsgroup for this group.
The Microsoft nntp newsgroups can be accessed via a newsreader (nntp client
software) at news.microsoft.com or via a 3rd party new server. The various
forums are web only.
