why, yes there is!  what you need is a uucp package for dos (or windows,
since you run it).  some of the more popular ones are uupc, fsuucp, and
waffle.  they will let you set up your own personal net site.  you will,
of course, need a site which is willing to give you a network feed.  of
the above listed packages, i believe that only waffle comes with its 
own built in newsreader.  if you want to read news with the others, you
will have to get a seperate newsreader.  i use waffle, and have a 
personal site set up, so if you would like some more information, drop
me some mail. :-)
