    Had newsleecher now for a year or so and having a few little issues with it. Just wondering if it's the best out there?

    Any others i should look at?

    I personally use Grabit. But only because its free and I cant find cracks for other clients.

    If you want a full usenet client it is. If you want to download nzb's then get http://www.sabnzbd.org . I only ever use NL for headers now.

    Newsleecher is the first reader I have ever used. Tried some others along the way, but ALWAYS returned to it, and as far as my exprience goes, it's the best. No other reader can compete with its well-designed interface and features, IMO. Besides, you have said that you are having a few issues with it, so why fix it if it ain't (totally ) broken?

    tried the others and always come back to Newsleecher

    I think I've only paid £ 2 or so when I've upgraded the version of the software

    don't bother with their Supersearch

    Yeah, for downloading from Usenet it's also my favorite.
    I like the efficiency, how it makes good use of resources without lagging.

    Hmm not sure I'd trust using something like this Web based, especially if you're downloading warez....

    You can read the code if you don't trust it unlike newsleecher.

    NewsLeecher gets my vote. It's free too and you get super search.

    Oh. Actually I stole it.
    Now go away.
