        ?

        Thanks for your replies, however i think you misunderstand opsmonkey, i mereley asked for a tutorial on using newsgroups ie newsservers and the asscociated software i didn't mention anything about nzb files or the like, i hope this clears things up as i am sure that using newsgroups is not ilegal and i am aware of the rules that this board has, and would not breach them....


        thankyou

          Yeah sound mate.. i wasnt trying to hand out a rolliking or anything.. I know what you mean.. i was asking how to use Newsgroups and what software was needed and that, and I got directed to the rules.. so i'm not sure etc..

          But i can tell you i use Alt.Binz as my download client (like a Newsgroup version of Utorrent).. I use Bin.Search to look for my NZB files and i did use the Virgin freeserver but if the NZB file is over 5 days old you cant download it.. i use Astraweb as my server now..

          I dont think this post breaks any rules as its not a link to an actual NZB file or server

                heres a nice video tutorial:

                How To Download ANYTHING With Newsgroups by GamersDaily -- Revver Online Video Sharing Network


                Also as your isp is virgin they carry 5 days retention but not sure on the server address.
