Anyone know of a XP compatible free Newsreader that supports SSL? I currently use Grabit but that doesnt support it.
 

How do you use it? I find it better on my download box/server running a service, but as an actual client, i'm not a fan.
It's great in the right situation though, save nzb's to one folder, they get deleted downloaded and appear pared/unrared in my completed folder without my client PC doing anything...
 
I have it linked with Newzbin, it automatically downloads everything I bookmark, unRARs and then cleans up after itself.

There's a nice FX extension called nzbStatus which can send every nzb file you click on straight to SABnzbd, if you don't use Newzbin.

This huge thread has tons of incredibly useful SABnzbd information and tips:

What do you need out of a client? NZB/message ID/URL goes in, files come out. Most people have a browser open all the time so it's easy to check and there are various firefox addons and a Windows GUI/monitoring thing.
