// You can run this script with Windows Scripting Host by invoking
// cscript.exe from the Windows command shell, or by using wscript.exe
// from Windows Explorer. I associate this with IE so that clicking on
// news: or nntp: URLs uses Google Groups.
//
// For the latest version of this script plus documentation on how to
// set up IE to use this script to handle news: or nntp: links, see
// http://www.zeuscat.com/andrew/software/googlegroups.shtml.
