Can't make post in newsgroups

Can't click the "New" to get a drop down menu. "All threads" doesn't work
neither. I can only "Reply". Anyone know what's going on?

ps: this post is done by firefox

Read this newsgroup and all newsgroups the way they were intended to be
read: with a newsreader, not a web interface.

Tell us what version of Windows you have (include the service pack
number) and we'll show you which newsreader is available to you free
from Microsoft and how to set it up in a few E-Z steps.

Always state your IE version and full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3;
Vista 64-bit SP2; Win7 RC; Win7) when posting in an IE-specific forum or
newsgroup. Please do so in your next reply.

My system is XP SP3.
It was completely fine 2 weeks ago. I don't know if it's because a certain
patch or not.
Thanks Leo

Perhaps something changed with an "add-on". Try starting IE (which version?)
without add-ons. Or, maybe, the site doesn't like IE 6, and you have not
moved beyond.

I prefer Leonard's approach, however; use a proper NNTP client. The
HTTP-to-NNTP thingy run by Microsoft is problematic under the best
circumstances. These groups are not "web forums" (HTTP is the web protocol),
they are "news groups" (NNTP is the news protocol).

We still don't know your IE version...
