1. Instead of booting up my pc with a floppy boot disk, is there a way I can boot it up with a CD? Is that program called WinBoot?

2. What is a News Provider and News Reader? Can I downloaded it for free?

Thanks!

if you put a cd in there before it boots up and it doesent read it you may have to change the bios so it reads it. i changed mine so i can leave cds in there and it wont try and read them when booting.

For most people their isp is their news provider, when you configure your e-mail account it normally has an option like this: "Internet News Server Name/News (NNTP) server", which you would normally put in "news". After that you can check out the *AHEM* delights of usenet...

Outlook Express can be used as a news reader, you can also use programs like Agent & Newsbin.
