Extra Usenet Tools

[Flinty]

Hey,

I was wondering what tools people use when doing their average download. I use Newsleecher and AutoUnpack. Is there any tool that can do the job better that AutoUnpack??


Thanks,
Scott

am with you too i use newsleecher and autounpack personally i think its the best combo there is at the moment until i am convinced otherwise ive tryed alot of unrar programs and they dont seem to beat autounpack

AutoUnpack is the only program I've tried that doesen't lock up when used simultaniously with Newsbin downloading.

Very good program. Sending all the NZB's from work and everything is ready to watch, play or whatever when I come home

Never heard of the thing, before I searched it up and saw THIS:

Virtual groups - combining headers from many groups in one window

Sound like something I need to try.

Does it just download the headers for each group your subscribed to 'cause Newsleecher does that too as well as Supersearch which is a godsend in my opinion.

Yes it does just dl headers to groups you subscribe to. It has a search function that does the same as supersearch as far as I can tell.
Just bought it for 35$, I love every bit of it. I have yet to find one thing about it I don't like.
There is a free 15 day trial that does everything the real version does, give it a try if you are bored.

EDIT was browsing and just realized slyck has it as the #1 rated reader, only 7 votes (& I am one of them )
