Do you have Perl and localProxy installed? If you don't you have to
download them:

Perl: http://www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePerl/

localProxy (proxyTools): http://sourceforge.net/projects/proxytools/

Open your Outlook Express (if that's the News reader you are using),
create a new News account, set Server as 'localhots', click the
'Advanced' tab, change the News (NNTP) port from 119 to 10119.

Run localProxy, select the right 'Configuration, in your case I guess
it's either UAE-ADSL or UAE-Dialup, select the 10119:Usenet news
service, then click Start services.

Now run your Local Express and check your News!

I hope that helps.
