iis smtp nntp : Hiding control newsgroups

Is there any way to hide the control newsgroups that are created by the
IIS 6 NNTP server? If I delete them, they are recreated at the next
restart.

If they cannot be hidden, could they be abused by an unauthorized user
who discovered them? Is there a way to prevent unauthorized access
whilst allowing anonymous access to the main newsgroups which are used
to provide customer support and information?

Yes it did, Jonathan, thank you very much, although as it was written
for IIS 4.0 my NNTP server was not as described and I had to hunt
around a bit to find the check box to restrict access.

Right-click the properties for Virtual Directories.
