where can i find microsoft.public.windows.group_policy ?

You can find it by using a real newsreader (see below). The MS news
server
is msnews.microsoft.com. The newsgroups also have an MS web interface
(really dreadful) plus you can get to it using Google Groups (also
dreadful).

You are using a web interface that leeches Usenet posts and most of the
rest
of us are using real newsreaders. We don't see what you do. If you want
to
participate in Usenet, the better way is to set up a newsreader. This
is
very easy to do and I'll give you information about that below. If you
prefer to use a forum, then here are two excellent ones:

http://forum.aumha.org/index.php
http://http://computerhaven.info/

Since you are using a web interface, you may not realize that this is
really
a newsgroup. You will get far more out of this resource if you learn to
use
a newsreader. There are many good newsreaders for Windows, but you can
use
Outlook Express (XP) or Windows Mail (Vista) since you already have
it.
Here are some links to information about newsgroups:
