What News reader are you using?

Ive been using Newsleecher for a long time now. I still have GrabIt installed although I hardly ever use it anymore other than as a search tool on occasion. I still think however it is a very good app seconed to very few and a great starting point for getting into Usenet as its very user friendly and of course is still freeware also...
 
Hey guys. I am new at this forum but I have a quick question. I have been searching high and low and can not seem to be able to find a copy of Newsleecher 1.0. I was wondering if anyone could help me and I posted in this thread since it seemed like this would be the place to ask for some help. Thanks in advance.
 
i wish i could use the latest newsleecher. i didn't know 1.0 was just as good, maybe i'll use that b/c i tend to like newsleecher over grabit.

ok, now i just looked around and couldn't find newsleecher 1.0 anywhere. anyone? :huh:

Newsleecher is the best :01:

there is no best for all. they all have advantages and disadvantages.
the newsleecher gui isn't very comfortable.
imho newbin does the best job for heavy downloading and organizing many
different groups at the same time. :cool:

Technically Newsleechers download algorithm has supposed to be the best...

thats what i said, they all have advantages and disadvantages.
maybe the download algorithm is good.
the gui is still crap compared to newsbin. however, new agent will hopefully
be better than both. :P

grabit uses imo to much resources when saving the file.

After starting with GrabIt, and then now trying Newsleecher, I find this to be true.
With GrabIt my pc was very slow, with Newsleecher I barely notice any change in my pc when downloading...
