    thats why.

    isp's tend not to keep files for very long, some dont evev get some of the parts at all! :down:

    www.ngroups.net

    subscribe to the unlimited service - works out about £7/month and you dont get any hassle with missing files.

    also goto www.newzbin.com and use that to search for what u want :up:

    i dont look in specific groups - i just use newzbin.com - takes all the hassle away.

    download the nzb file from there and open it with grabit - done :D

    you have to sign up to be a member then buy premium credits.

    it works out about £2 for 8 weeks worth or something.

    then once you find what u want - just click "get headers" and it downloads the nzb file :up:

    Usenet is free..

    Subscription to Newzbin is as priced above.

    Personally I would never ever associate any of my accounts with this stuff.. therefore.. I search manually :)

    it doesn't matter though really - regardless of which tools/services you use to search and download - all the traffic still comes thru your isp who has all ur details.
