NewsBin Pro is a multithreaded news robot which can be used to easily download then decode binary posts from usenet newsgroups.
NewsBin Pro will take full advantage of high bandwidth internet connections by allowing multiple simultaneous connections to your news server or servers with or without SSL. It re-assembles multi-part posts across multiple servers and includes an integrated thumbnail viewer when downloading images.
The AutoPAR function automatically processes RAR files including correcting/replacing damaged or missing files in a set when PAR2 files are available. NewsBin Pro features advanced newsgroup organization and configuration options, special NZB processing modes, and automatic download mode, and Multiple CPU/Core support to take advantage of high end systems.
NewsBin Pro supports regular expression parsing for complex filtering capabilities based on subjects or filenames and provides file size filtering and limits on crossposting. Also includes an optional Usenet search service integrated in the program.
