G'day noone2..
I am presuming you have read _all_ other text posts (comments)
on the topic of these and other (NZB) directed postings made in
spam bucket groups.
<alt.binaries.multimedia>
<alt.binaries.dominion.silly-group>
<alt.binaries.dominion.boneless>
I am also presuming you are able to reason sound judgment.
First, nobody knows (other than the poster), or will say, just what
is in this 5.88GB posting of two archives. The person who posted
the files is sitting right here in ABCP, watching us, watching you.
Secondly..
I have downloaded one of the archives.
At 450MB this is a considerable portion of my monthly allowance
in bandwidth I pay for.
The "chunks" for those posts were 25MB each, a ridiculous
figure to post RaR at, anywhere. There are copious PAR posted, however
the success rate of PAR built by this poster is dismal, to say the least.
Right now I have lost one computer when attempting to test run
one of the programs in that post. I am yet to figure why that is.
I have to get the box back up (booted) to begin figuring why.
I have other productive work to do of more importance.
From what I have read, and the behavior displayed by the person
who posted those files, there is no way I would consider _ever_
downloading _anything_ posted away from ABCP were I not
experienced in every facet of Usenet workings and well able to fix
broken computers.
That's me. Only you can make a decision for you.
The question you should be asking (in my opinion) is *why*
are these posts being made with references put into ABCP.
There is the rub.. WHY is this being done.
You may have to travel the path yourself to get a full picture.
I have mine.. in technicolour <g>
And when one boils it all down, it is a good thing that you discover for
yourself that they (FTD postings) are all shit after all.
After all, how "harmful" can that information be for ABCP members?
First step is to grab a NZB file to load into your NZB enabled version
of Agent. Use the NZB posted to ABCP at your own risk.
Far safer to create your own from your own selections.
Select your download using these search engines.
http://www.binsearch.info/
http://members.easynews.com/global4/search.html
I assume you have an Easynews account, posting as you do from
Easynews.
Actually downloading the files you select for your NZB?
You have a NZB enabled version of Agent.
To find help on how to use the feature, go read the Agent help file and
then ask anything you do not understand in the Agent support group:
<alt.usenet.offline-reader.forte-agent>
.. have fun now.. and please, no tears in ABCP <g>
cheers
