Alt.binz + Astraweb Quest

If you look at the top right of the Alt.Binz site, it says, "current version / build : v0.28.1" Though if you navigate to the "Downloadz" section on the Alt.Binz site, it says that 0.25 is the latest build. :idunno:

As for the startup issue, just create a shortcut to Alt.Binz and drag it into your "Startup" folder. Anything in that folder when run whenever your PC is booted. I think the default location is Start > All Programs > Startup.

Nice to see you're moving along though. :)

The latest build of Alt.Binz is 0.28.1. However, version 0.25 was the last public build. To access the newer ones you have to donate and become a contributor.

It's well worth it IMO.

Check the Version history there are many many new features as well as fixes. One of the things I know that broke a while ago was .nfo viewing from the search tabs, which now works perfectly.

Also, becoming a contributor gets you access to the requests forum and you can request new features to be added to the next builds.

bow chicka wow wow :fst:

my signature has an RS link for AltBinz 0.28.1. If you still have trouble with the latest version of AltBinz then try GrabIt. I've heard good things about that as well. For various tutorials on usenet go to:

Ok thanks, how about getting around ISP choking usenet? is there anyway to avoid this like ssl encryption or ssh tunneling?

Also ive really been wondering, What is usenet? ive read wikipedia but its written for scientists :(

The way i 'see' it is a bunch or servers out there that people upload to, things like astraweb provide access to these servers and so do some isp's?

i know im probably well off but i just really dont understand it, could someone put it in layman's terms for me :P

thanks

I always found this to be the best explanation.
