I have been comparing readers for a while. I'm new to usenet. I played around with it briefly in 99' while taking some night courses locally. But at the time we just used the news service and booked airline tickets. Nothing wint binary. I have found that Mimo (free with Giganews) is better at grabbing Rars and Pars than most. But is equal at grabbing pics. What I run into a lot is "Header Failure: Failed loading headers from server" I had a neighbor set me up and bypass the ISP. I use it only to hook up with. I'm off their service within a mile or two from my house. It works better that way. One thing I can do is increase my speed by about 400%. It's good to have smart neighbors he-he. Do this copy the text between the *'s and paste it into notepad. Re label it "New, New, and New! y156 Zina Custom 2007-11-01 (custom of set 030.NZB" and see if you can get the said file using astraweb. I couldn't and had to search it individually getting only a partial (92 of 117 pics). Let me know how you do. If you'd like I can post what I've got so that we can compare the results.
