    Default Best Newsgroup Software?

    I use grabit for downloading from newsgroups, but what does everyone else use?

    thats what it does m8......it still downloads at your max connection speed tho so it makes no difference.

    Grabit (which also does the auto repair/extract/delete btw for those that didn't know.) I Also find the free usenet search handy, you can only do a couple a day for free but it's handy for the occassional item if you can't find an nzb.
