    Yeah i noticed this as well, what i did was to copy all my files 
    from the newsbase folder in 1.35 into the folder called Articles
    i think this is what newsbase is now called now.
    Works well for me.
    
    
    Also have you noticed that when you click on a newsgroup you 
    sometimes end up with a blank window, however one more click in the 
    window  and everything appears as it should.
    
    I think its going to take a little while to get used to the new 
    features cos there's tons of them.
