Publisher's description of Binary Boy
A yEnc/NZB compliant newsreader that makes finding and downloading files easy. Enter a search term, browse the results, and then select the files. Binary Boy can combine parts from multiple servers to assemble a complete file. If pieces of a file are missing, the Dr. Binary feature can attempt to create a playable file from the available parts. This is also handy for previewing movies and music. Binary Boy can keep your files organized by creating a folder for each newsgroup. The folder can use the name of the newsgroup or you can manually assign each a name. You can also send related files, such as music from the same artist, to the same folder. The built-in scheduler allows you to download files matching your search criteria and disconnect automatically after an optional time limit.
Version 1.696 adds redesigned cache system that improves search speed and uses nearly 70% less disk space, handling of larger newsgroups with less RAM, minor bug fixes.

Version: Binary Boy 1.96
"One of the best newsreaders!!"
Pros: Binary Boy is fast and non cpu consuming. It's big advantage is the speed in wich you can download entire newsgroups in one go and filter all content you want or don't want. You can set the program to use all available connections to your newsserver and use them simultaniously. The program is very flexible, the user is in control of the downloads.
In short, it's definately the best newsreader i've ever used!
Cons: So far no cons found.
