    Lost my 'News' button in Outlook

    I was rearranging the buttons on my toolbar in Outlook 2003, and I've lost my "News" button (i.e. Outlook NewsReader). If I go to Add or Remove buttons, Customize, it should be listed under 'Go', but it's not. I've searched all the other categories, but can't see it anywhere. Any suggestions?
