I don't use Outlook Express but have you got the expire set to 3 days, my Turnpike lets me choose how long an article stays on my computer, I choose 7 days.

It's either your ISP or your own software setting the limits.
Make sure that your own software isn't expiring articles after two or three days. It's a configuration in your own news reading software and 3 days may be the default setting that you haven't changed.
Most reputable UK ISPs will keep text only postings on their servers for a number of weeks. Some of the ISPs that offer a cheap telephone deal may have limited storage capacity and expire news articles after a day or so. ISPs are NOT all the same!

Thanks for the info I found the problem in the options in tools it was set to 3 days, removed the check mark so it should stay now!!
