Download NewsBin Pro 6.01 build 1255 beta 6

The sixth beta release of NewsBin Pro version 6.01 has been released. NewsBin Pro is intended to retrieve files such as photos, movies and programs from usenet. These files can be downloaded in individual packets from one or more news servers and reassembled at the receiving end. Since version 6.00, the interface uses tabs and there is a cache to memory option that, if a machine has plenty of memory, reduces constant access to the hard drive. Version 6.01 mainly contains bug fixes and minor improvements. The following changes have been made in this release:

Changes in version 6.01 beta 6 build 1255:

• In Autopar, added a mode to start unpausing and download PAR files on their own, would help autopar do its job for some non-standard posting
• If no complete PAR files are found, now just downloads them all in hopes of finding enough blocks to complete the set.
• Now reports passworded RAR files in the Status column “Passworded RAR – Paused”, unless they have been assigned a password.
• New option in download list right click menu “Assign UnRAR Password”. Not hooked up yet.
