Ok here's what you do. Go to the "Group" option on the tool bar. Then
click on "Default properties for all groups". Once this is up, click
on the tab that says "Retrieving". 
The first line on this page should say "Retrieve bodies for all new
articles". Just un-check the box for this option, hit "ok" and
everthing should be fine.
Don't feel bad, the on-line help leaves a lot to be desired!
