If you are just downloading via NZB's, Newsbin Pro is the best imo for low resources and ease of use. If you want the option of viewing threaders and downloading via nzb, go for Newsleecher! (Just recommendations on my part).

[Jack S. Buy more ammo!]

Newsleecher. Tried all the known or less known clients and it uses the least resources, is the easiest to control and, well, looks good :-D
Getting about 6.5 Megabytes per second with 20 connections on a X2 3800+ and only Newsleecher is able to handle that without sending my whole system to hell.

Newsbin Pro is the best application for usenet by far. Newsleecher is a very close second. I say that due to the licensing issue with Newsleecher. I want to pay a one time fee for an application. Supersearch is the only thing Newsleecher has over Newsbin, and I would use nzb search engines or indexing sites anyway.

^^^ Yes sir ... this comin from another supplier so it MUST BE a good program

[Powder Snow]

i use newsrover and it works fine for me

[Oh Laura!]

Alt.Binz search system is adequate for my purposes. I am looking for something that is as user friendly as possible without me having to go to a dozen nzb search sites.

I usually use binsearch or NZBindex (within Alt.Binz) and type away the keywords like : lord rings. I customized it to reflect 250 results per page and 99 days (my ISP gives about 100+ days of binary retention).
