Apparently this is due to a Google "upgrade"
See the slashdot story:
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/12/02/149210&tid=217&tid=95

The important thing is that you (or I) can still access them at 
groups.google.co.uk:

http://groups.google.co.uk/groups?frame=right&th=e562a771d1c827c9

etc

Maybe the URLs on the web page could be adjusted?
