Hello all, I'm hoping for a little help/advice.
Newsleechers Supersearch has been playing up no-end, as many users may unfortunately know, so I'm gonna cancel them and move if I can.
Has anyone got any suggestions for alternatives? Can be paid or free but needs a quick index like SS used to be. I've tried Usenet Explorer's trial and really didn't like that, horrible UI in my opinion.
Thank you very much.

You might want to give Newsbin Pro a try. It seems a lot of ex-Newsleecher users have ended up there.
I agree that UE takes some getting used to.
I completely forgot about newsbin pro lol Thank you very much for that Zot
Not as pretty as NL but much better than UE lol
I hear News Bin V6 is better, haven't made the upgrade myself yet though.
what's wrong with supersearch? it works great for me by far the fastest indexer/searcher there is. gets everything 15 minutes to half hour faster than other services.
It's not indexing quite a few groups properly and as a result many files come up damaged or missing when there not. Loads of people having same issues from what I can tell on there forum and others sites.Quote:

It seems like a lot of Newsleecher users have been complaining about problems getting ignored. I was just looking at the forum and a lot of questions - going back months - have gone unanswered.
Yeh, I spent a few days trawling there forum to try and find answers and get answers. The site admin seems to ignore the supersearch issues and as a result has at least lost one customer.Quote:

The best free alternative I found on my travels is nzbindex.nl which is up to date to about 5min which is really quick for a free service but I need quicker for the uploads I do.
I went for newsbin and seems pretty good so far.
Big thanks Zot and Cola for the helpful replies as well :D
Usenet Explorer FTW.
And its not an alternative to NL. Its far superior to NL.
I might have to check this one out. How does it fare with Newsbin Pro?Quote:
