The majority of groups that you will be interested in are binary groups. Many popular Usenet indexing services like Binsearch support the creation of NZB files. This is an excellent option to download data fast from the Usenet as you do not have to browse groups first to do so.
#NEWSBIN DUPLICATE DETECTOR HOW TO#
When you load a NZB into the program, you provide it with information on how to download the data of that post. NZB files contain information about posts made on the Usenet. You do not need to do that, as you can also load nzb files directly into Newsbin Pro. Once you have added at least one server to the program, you can start adding groups to it.


Some providers support header compression which speeds up the process significantly (Giganews does). A header offers information about the contents of the post, the name for instance that the uploader has given to it. So, you usually download headers first, browse through the list of posts the program retrieves for you, to download the items that you are interested in. Users post information to Usenet groups, and to retrieve the information, the Usenet client downloads headers of those posts first.This is similar to the option in desktop email clients to only retrieve headers first. I do not want to get into too many details here, but headers require some explanation. You can modify a couple of advanced settings here, like using SSL for extra security, whether you want to block header downloads from the server or use it as a fill server only. All it takes is usually to enter the server address, username and password. Here you need to click on the new server button and add the server information that your Usenet provider provided you with. Some Internet Service Providers give you access to the Usenet for free, but most of the time, you need to subscribe to a service like Giganews to get access to it.įirst thing that you may want to do after installing the program on your system is to add a server to it.

Newsbin Pro is primarily a downloading tool for the Usenet which means that you need access to a Usenet account to use the software at all.
#NEWSBIN DUPLICATE DETECTOR UPGRADE#
That in itself is a great deal in times where it is common that you need to pay an upgrade fee to upgrade to new (major) versions of programs. You pay $20 once, that is the current price at least as shown on the website, to get all future updates free of charge. Before I start reviewing the program, I'd like to point out that you get lifetime upgrades with a purchase. Newsbin Pro has been on my computer ever since and I never looked back again. It was a commercial program even back in the days and while I preferred free software over commercial for obvious reasons, I decided to take the plunge and purchase the program. I tried many different programs at that time which all had their issues and flaws and finally found Newsbin Pro in 1999 I think it was. When I started to get interested in the Usenet, or newsgroups, I quickly worked my way through the available programs to find the best suited program for that.
