lsdrinks is more for geek type news and not world news
also it creates a htm file through the popup to view in your
browser and not on the desktop as im looking for.
a simple shortcut to worldnews.com in your popup will do the same
as lsdrinks in my opinion.

ty for your direction

Does anyone if Mindjunction is dead
and will lsnews.dll work anymore

If I had a link to a website that had txt files of current news
I could point lsnews to that page and I could accomplish what I want.
