OT--Free Agent

Hello, Does anyone use Free Agent to read newsgroups?
Someone recommended it to me and I was just wondering how
it was. Kristine

I have used it for years. It is a stripped down version
of some other readers but gets the basic job done for
free. Mary

forte agent imo is the best newsreader available for
windows. The free version has some drawbacks (notably it
doesn't alert you to cross posts). You haven't wasted your
money. I have the old version and was thinking of
upgrading to v2.

I have used it for years and recently (about 12 months ago)
upgraded to Agent ($20 or so). It's fantastic and I wouldn't
access Usenet any other way.

Best, Diane

I use the paid version of Agent, absolutely love it. I
haven't updated to their newest version though, am curious
if there are any major changes.

I guess then you like it. I bought the program so I guess what I have is
Fort Agent not Free Agent. I am trying it out. I guess I should have just
gone with the 30 day free trial.

Where/how does it notify of cross postings? I should look
back at some in this packet.... Unless I show ALL_HEADERS
which is too much info, I can't easily tell???

Thanks...

Check under Properties-cross posts. Here you can control
whether or not you see cross-posts. In this group look for
the trolls and you'll find cross posts for sure.

Some, altho not many, of the cross-posts have been
worthwhile.
