Hi All,

I have been using newsgroups for the past few months through my isp. However I wonder I f i have been doing this the wrong way. I have gone to the newzbin site to find out what I am looking for. And I havv the Newsbin pro v5 as the download tool.

Anyway going to newzbin you get an address like alt.biniaries.xxx or whatever (don;t want to link anything specific)

once that is loaded it list a big list of games. How do I narrow my search for just the item I am looking for from the Newzbin site?
This is the info i get from the site:

PostID: 2xxxxxx [Add to Bookmarks] Total Size: 6,xxxMB
Title: xxxxxx (NTSC) () Total Files: 70 files
Category: Consoles :: Other Upload Time: 2h 32m 7s
URL: xxx Upload Speed: 746.5 KB/sec
Editor: xxxxx Upload Rate: 27.6 files/hour
Reported: xxx Total Comments: 2 comments [Add]
Status: NORMAL Completion: COMPLETED Viewed: 980 times
NFO: [View] (plex.nfo) [70/70] - "plex.nfo" (10K)yEnc (XX/1)
Group: alt.binaries.games.xbox360

So what from this info will let me narrow my search - or do I have to do what I usually do is just srot through the hundereds of files until I find what I want?

Looks like I forgot to edit out the bottom info - how come we can only edit our titles and not our own post?

just use a filter and look for .nzb. the .nzb files have all the files you need for the download.. it is like a .torrent file.. that u will load up into your tracker and download all the files..
