That's very weird indeed, particularly if you aren't updating your
newsgroup list between appearance and disappearance, because PAN doesn't
update the newsgroup list on its own.  In that case, I'd say it's very
likely a file system issue, as if the file with the list in it is there to
read, PAN should read it and display the group as there, and that
shouldn't change.  I'd ensure that you had good backups of anything you
want to keep on that file system, because if this is the first hint that
it's failing...
