I was poking around in my news.dat file...I'm using Yarn95 v.90 (tried
.92, but it caused problems with my machine, causing it to lock up
frequently). I noticed articles still hanging around from September!

So, I reset the date on my machine to September, and started running
expires, resetting the date up by a day, and running expire -o, and
repeating the process until I'd caught up with the current date. And
nothing went away. And, my Keep settings are no more than 14 days for
any given newsgroup. Is anyone else aware of a bug in the expire95.exe
program?
