I use grabit. it allows me to update the groups which i subscribe to which all the files available, then i can select what i want and start downloading, i believe you can do that on newsleecher too. heres a picture http://www.wintips.nl/files/scr/grabit.jpg
on the left you got all the groups you subscribe to like binaries.hdtv.x264 and on the right you got the articles in that particular group.
Thank u very much.
How do I know which group is wort subscribe to??
thank u very much
you can list them by the number of articles they have, if you click the tab where it says "articles" the bigger ones have most files and are most worthwhile to look through...but stay away from alt.binaries.boneless on rr newsgroups because retention is like a couple hours haha.Quote:

I use alt.binz and it seems to me that whenever I select SSL , the download stop.
Does rr free server support SSL ??

Im getting approx. 750-840 kbps from RR with Grabit.
I configured Grabit for approx 14 connections.
I have 6 connections at a time w/download speed of 300-400kb/sec. So far unlimitted and I have no complaint. I usually start at midnight and let it go.
You can browse the group without downloading headers or subscribing. Just use an index search engine like binsearch.info.Quote:

To get started Google WinRaR and download it.(it's like Winzip)
Download "Grabit" newsgroup browser
For the server in Grabit use:(news-server.socal.rr.com) or can use other RR servers across USA-Google for them
"subscribe" (it's free) to an alt.binaries group in Grabit(select one with mp3 in name). there's one with "completecd" in name -that's good.
Setup Grabit for 10-20 connections.
join "Merlins Portal" (google it)
you can then in Merlins(select NZB section) and browse or search, hit "download now"
It will come up with dialog box to open with WinRaR-select "ok"--Another box will come up double-click the NZB file-it will launch Grabit and throw files associated with that NZB into Grabit and start downloading them-see batch tab in Grabit.
This took me about 10 days to figure out.
Google any questions you have--"what is a NZB file", etc.
Let us know how it goes.
There are many ways to get to newsgroups, this is just one way and one program-there are many.
