  Hello Kenneth,
 Since Yahoo has taken over the Egroups message boards, you'll have to 
"convert" your Egroups accounts over to the Yahoo way of life to gain access 
to the website. 

From this page:

http://groups.yahoo.com/    

 there is a link for previous egroups users (that's us!)  that will take you 
through an "association" process. Once completed, this will let you access 
all your previous Egroups accounts. A Yahoo ID and password will have to be 
submitted. If you don't currently have a Yahoo account, you simply pick any 
name and pwd to create one. 

 Hope that helps,
 Andrew Sanchez
