    Hey,

    I was wondering if someone could recommend me a newsnet provider along with a nice client for Windows?

    Thanks,

    Tom

    Okay, so I bought it and I am currently using NewsBin to view the stuff. Although when I search for anything in alt.binaries.warez all I find are files less than 1MB that are blatently obviously viruses.

    Am I doing something wrong here?

    Also, I'm currently having speed problems (Apparently its a line fault) and I normally get around 500Kbps (or 55-60KBps). Although my client claims to be downloading at in excess of 5Mbps. How can this be?

    Mmm...


    Am I doing something wrong again? Do I need to do something to the rar's to get them to extract properly. Normally winrar can extract split archives fine...
