The problem with clearing cookie when reading through google groups is
google stores your group preferences in the cookies. Every time the
cookies are cleared every subscribed group goes back to the default
behavior. I have to set each group to view-as-a-tree and so on again.

That's a lot of extra work using google as my secondary newsreader.
It was far too much work when I travelled enough to use it as my primary
reader.
