Agent 1.92
Shareware
Agent is a feature-enhanced commercial news and e-mail reader product. If you are looking for enhanced newsreading functionality, kill and watch filters, sorting, support for MIME/Base 64 encoded attachments, fully integrated email capabilities then Agent is it. Also, Free Agent (a limited version of Agent) is now part of Agent, in that it may be enabled instead of obtaining a license code at the end of the 30-day trial period.
The newest version also adds support for yEnc files, among other fixes and features.

Gravity 2.5

Freeware
Gravity is a powerful tool for accessing and processing information from the more than 25,000 USENET discussion groups. Integrated rules, filtering, and scoring systems help to automatically identify important information and eliminate unwanted content. This is the final release by Microplanet, they closed their doors in December 2001. Be aware, this version may not install properly; (it will hang at the splash screen) The fix for this is to install Gravity 2.3 first, and then install version 2.5.

Leechguy 2.0

Freeware

Leechguy is a Usenet binaries download program that can be used with Newsguy's Direct Read News, as well as a couple of other web-based (DRN) servers to access Usenet newsgroups, which sometimes offers faster performance over traditional NNTP Usenet newsreaders. yEnc encoded files may be downloaded successfully, provided that the DRN server supports yEnc.

Newsbin 4.01

Shareware
NewsBin is a Usenet Downloading Tool. It downloads, decodes, and reassembles any binary attachment including movies, music, pictures, even software. If any combination of servers or groups has a complete file, NewsBin will download it because it has the unique feature of re-assembling files across servers and groups. It also offers thumbnail viewing, spam filtering, and posting options. The latest version adds additional server configurations, including connection and download limits; group filter configurations, Better multiple server support, and yEnc encoding support.

Super Gravity 2.6

Freeware
Super Gravity is the unofficial version of Gravity that can show complete multi-part binaries, decode yEnc, and a few other goodies. It is not the official 2.5 release. In order to use this version, you must have version 2.3 or 2.5 of Gravity already installed. Also, since Microplanet is no longer in business, and this is a strictly unofficial version, you may experience random bugs and other anomolies through its use; a list of bugs and issues has been created to list them.
