For some reason Google groups has suddenly started showing me a pointless sidebar which covers up the titles of the 20 or so most recent threads on the group, so that I can't click on them (and, therefore, can't read them), as can be seen here ... [URL]http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d132/zx6r2000/googlegroups.jpg[/URL] I can't see any option to turn it off anywhere either. As it was working fine when I left work yesterday I assume that it's something that Google has done - as if their fucking news service wasn't shitty enough as it is. Does somebody want to e-mail me with the secret of reading news at work when the NNTP port is blocked by the firewall, please? As I won't be able to see or reply to this thread could you, pretty please, e-mail me at andrew one-of-them-dot-things rockface atttttt gmail another-one-of-them-dot-things com. Thankee muchee.
