I want to use a good free news server to download some binaries but can't find a decent one. My ISP's is a bit crap cos its a new isp and has no binaries on it. Anyone know a decent free server?

You could give YottaNews a go.
Click here (http://www.yottanews.com/freeaccount.php) to create a free account.

Haven't tried it myself yet,but if you're just trying to get used to how dl'ing from Usenet works it's as good as any other free server :)

I've tried yottanews, but its got a download limit, and the files i want to download are the big ones (2gb+). Great server though.

There are no free good ones, all free ones either have a data limit or don't hold binaries. Cough up £7 a month and get Newshosting.
