Search ABC from Firefox

By so doing, you will void your warranty. If you're not using IE, you're using dirt.

Get Firefox (if you don't already have it)

Go to (and you might as well subscribe) to the Google Groups version of news:alt.building.construction >

Place your cursor in the Search This Group box on the upper right of the page >

Rightclick > Add Keyword for this Search > The "Add Bookmark" box will display >

Fill in an appropriate name, such as "alt.building.construction ng" >

Fill in a Keyword such as a simple "abc" >

OK button > You're done!

To Search.

F6 (to place the focus in the Address Bar of Firefox; you don't need to do this if the focus is already there)>

Type "abc", followed by a space, and whatever you want to search ABC for. For example:

F6 a honest man

This would search Google's archive of ABC for an honest man.

You can use the Google Group's search techniques,

for example: F6 a author: snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com (not saying you'd want to go there) would give you my posts

You can use this procedure for other newsgroups search boxes or for non-newsgroup search boxes too.

alt.a-holesThatSpamNewsgroupsNamedNehmo

It's still spam.....

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......spammmmmmmm...."
