Download URD 1.0.2

URD, which stands for Usenet Resource Downloader, has been updated to version 1.02. With this program files from usenet can be downloaded. This can be done by using nzb files, but it is also able to analyze a newsgroup itself and generate a download set for a specific collection of files. URD is being developed for Linux and BSD and is released under an open source license. The changelog for this release looks like this:

• Autoconfigure option tries to find the right newsserver settings for you
• Lower CPU load (~50%) while downloading (might increase dl speeds)
• Advanced search added to browse pages
• Setnames are now customizable in preferences
• Accidentally split sets can now be merged together
