i actually found it when looking for a PAR2 file reader
edit: missed your edit
some servers are free (ones that come with isp are free, however, as the guide says, they may be poor).
i'm lucky in that my ISP's news service is excellent
you should look at your isp's home page (or contact them), for details of their retention and/or completion rates
looks like my isp hasnt got one :(
Same thing here...
