The third beta release of version 3.0 of NewsLeecher has just been released. With this program messages from newsgroups on Usenet can be read and files can be downloaded. Among other things, NewsLeecher can download from multiple servers simultaneously, has support for yEnc encryption, and can handle up to 99 threads simultaneously. The following changes have been made in this release:
Changes in 3.0 beta 3:
- Added a ‘single click activate’ option for the ‘group view’ menu on the ‘active group’ page.
- New ‘Rename Group’ feature that allows one to locally rename groups to more human readable names in the group manager.
- Reintroduced the ‘active group’ dropdown box due to popular request.
- Added an option to see the ‘total download size’ for all servers combined.
- Moved ‘Log’, ‘News’, ‘XPAT Search’ and ‘Posting Queue’ tabs to a subtab called ‘Advanced’, to unclutter the main UI. Making it more simple.
- Minor redesign of the main toolbar. (Preparing it for full text reader functionality in NewsLeecher v4.0)
- Lots of small visual improvements.
- Fixed a serious bug that sometimes caused NewsLeecher to change some security settings in the registry. More info†
- ‘Auto Update Active Group’ didn’t work. Fixed!
- ‘Export to NZB’ didn’t work with singlepart articles when exporting from the ‘Active Group’ view. Fixed. (Bug was introduced in 3.0 beta 2)
