 Based on Successful Experience
It is no secret that the development of NewsLeecher was initially inspired by some of the existing newsreaders on the market. We have tried to take the best features of those readers and mixed them together to make the ultimate newsreader available for our users!

 Including the Popular SuperSearch Usenet Search Feature
With the built-in SuperSearch feature, you can search *all* the binary usenet groups at once, for a specific keyword or keystring, in less than a second! The SuperSearch engine is state-of-the-art in it's speed and it's ability to perform true wildcard searches!

 Full Support for NZB Files
NewsLeecher has full support for the NZB file format. It can create and export NZB files directly from articles in the group view or from SuperSearch results. And it can import NZB files manually and automatically in many different ways, for easy downloading.

 Top Tuned yEnc Support
Besides supporting the "old" encoding formats, such as uuEncode, NewsLeecher also supports the brand new encoding format called yEnc. Actually NewsLeecher has a top tuned yEnc decoding engine that makes sure your downloads are decoded smoothly in the background without consuming too much CPU time.

 Automatic PAR2 & RAR File Handling
No more fumbling around with PAR and RAR set files! Using the integrated "Repair'n'Extract" feature, NewsLeecher can automatically verify and repair broken file sets, and automatically unpack RAR archive sets to a location you choose. "Repair'n'Extract" contains many custom settings for fitting the feature exactly for your liking.

 Advanced Multiserver Support
NewsLeecher has advanced support for leeching from multiple servers at the same time! An unlimited number of usenet servers can be used to download files at the same time!

 Multithreaded Server Downloading
Besides being able to download from several servers at the same time, NewsLeecher can also use up to 99(!!) simultaneous download threads per server. This could, for example, be used to download 99 pictures from a server at the same time!

 Filter System
The filtering feature enables one to find certain posts without going through all received headers. Filter by subject, size, age and more!

More good news for users of the new SuperSearch engine!

Now that the SuperSearch article retention has been bumped to 850 days in most groups, the limit for the maximum number of results returned by SuperSearch, also need a bump. So we've just doubled the search results limit from 15.000 to 30.000.

But remember that this only applies to the new SuperSearch engine used by NewsLeecher V4.0 Beta 18 and newer releases.

Also remember that the new SuperSearch engine is currently free to use for *all* NewsLeecher users. Trial users as well as registered users. It will remain free for at least a couple of weeks time.

A quick update to let you know that we've just upgraded the new SuperSearch engine, used by NewsLeecher V4.0 Beta 18 and newer releases.

With the upgrade in place, the advanced SuperSearch filters, like the 'Poster Name' filter, the 'Group Name' filter and the 'Min / Max Size' filters are now working properly.

We've also optimized the turn-around time of the new SuperSearch indexer, so the refresh rate in most of the indexed groups is close to instant (~60 seconds or less).

During the next couple of weeks, the new SuperSearch engine, introduced in Beta 18, is totally free to use for all NewsLeceher users. Trial users as well as registered users. So search away everybody, but remember that the free search period only applies to NewsLeecher V4.0 Beta 18 and newer releases, as older versions of NewsLeceher don't take advantage of the new search engine.
