Sorry to say Claude (and the other guy) are 100% right, if money is very tight
and i know it can be sometimes pay for a service for just a month and leech
everything you can from your list, then maybe come back and ask for what you
have left, some of us may be happy to post the nzb's for you, but i'm sorry to
say you do need to spend a few quid to get a decent service even if it is for
just a month or 2.
