    At the moment James Bond Nightfire is working and other stuff just downloads quick and all there is is text files.

    Im using SBC Yahoo DSL and their newserver so i dont know how fast it purges or something like that.

    I tired things that came out like recently from a few hours and it doesnt work.

    Try subscribing to any decently populated group and download the headers. This should give you an idea of how long binaries are kept on your server.
