Deleting Junk

Anyone know how I can delete the 'junk' newsgroup from my Oasis 1.35? I'm fed up
of getting all the useless stuff coming through, including some binary stuff,
which is costing me money in connected times. 

I have tried to delete the group, but Oasis comes back to tell me it cannot be
deleted. Up to about 3 months ago, I had never received any news items for the
newsgroup, even though it was in my list of groups. Then, suddenly, all this
stuff starts coming through - presumably Demon fiddled with something. 

Can anyone help?

Simon

I don't think it can be deleted, out of interest is theere any
relationship between the articles that are collected there or do they
seem to be random occurences?
