FOUND ON DIFFRENT FORUM
ok there is a lot to explain and most of it is un
needed or more to the point
you wont need it . well at least not to start with .
maybe in a few months when you
feel more at home with the world of usenet you may feel
the need to look deeper
this tutorial is therefore aimed at the guys who want
to use a news group but
have no idea what one is how to install needed items
and download the files
you want .
ok news groups = a good place to download the newest
movie / game / application / music ect
yer im sure its more than that but do you realy care ?
..
ok needed in order i think best . some files may seem
odd but they will make life easy so dont moan
just download them ok Razz..
Code:
1 is the application used to connect to the news groups
and download the files
2 is a application made to help fix any files
application No 1 fails to download correctly
3 is winrar always use the newest version around as
most files posted to the newsgroups
do use the newest versions
4 Daemon Tools is a virtual CDrom DVD drive great for
testing any cd's or DVD you download
before burning them to Disks .
1 is a pay for application and in time you may well
want to subscribe to it as it is one of the
best applications out there for doing its job. but the
link i give you is for the final version 1
and keygens are all over the net for this one .
or check next post down for chicken link
2. smartpar is realy freeware so no need to worry here
3. winrar is always cracked so check out google its
your friend Razz ..
4. Daemon Tools is freeware no probs eh!..
ok now you have to do some work that i cant do for you
you have to go and find out
what you own ISP's News Server Address is .
Mine is at Pipex =
Code:
nntp.dsl.pipex.com
username and password are required to login to it
NTL users can try any of these
Code:
news.cache.ntlworld.com
news.cache.cable.ntlworld.com
news.ntlworld.com
news.cable.ntlworld.com
newscache.cable.ntlworld.com
newsfep1a-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep1a-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep1b-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep1c-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep1d-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep2a-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep2b-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep2c-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep2d-gui.server.ntli.net
newsfep1a-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep1b-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep1c-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep1d-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep2a-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep2b-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep2c-win.server.ntli.net
newsfep2d-win.server.ntli.net
news.tesco.net (yep you can access these from an ntl
account)
news.virgin.net (yep you can access these from an ntl
account)
Cache servers unreliable but at least accept a
connection:
cache1-mant.server.ntli.net
inktomi1-bro.server.ntl.com
inktomi2-bro.server.ntl.com
sorry but there are so many ISP's out there i cant
possibly find them .do not install
anything until you have this information without it you
cant do jack ..
ok if you have now got the news server info your ISP
use's then procced to install
app No 1
on install leave it all on default click ok next yes ok
ect til all is done then run it.
on 1st run look at the very top menus and click on
OPTIONS
then click DOWNLOADS if needed change the path to the
download folder as needed
remember you will be downloading many gigs so make sure
the drive has room .
if not edit the path and change the drive make a new
folder ect so you have room.
now click on HEADERS and untick " all ways get all
headers" and enter 100000 in
both the boxes . this will download if and when required
the last 5 days headers
(you may never do it just setting up incase you feel
brave Razz // )
now click NZB files . ok click everthing in here except
"pretty up subfolder names "
and then apply the settings . now we setup the news
server connection info so do
this next.
look at the tabs near the top area the first one is
called "Usenet Manager"
click it and you will be able to add a new news server
by right clicking in the white area and selecting ADD NEW SERVER , in this new box enter
the details you should have the SERVER ADDRESS is the news server your ISP gave you
to use.
the nick name can be anything you like should be same
as the ADDRESS if you typed it in the number of connections can vary so its trial and
error here set it to 1 con and then increase it untill you see a problem .(normaly says access
forbiddon ) when you connect of course if you require a login (some do some dont) tick the box
and enter a user and password for your news server this will normaly be the same user
and password you use to connect to the ISP's ADSL system . if you dont require a login
then un tick the box and enter nothing in user and password areas . it knows if your on there
ADSL network and connects if you are. again bit of trial and error here ..
once you think its right click OK and then look at the
icons at the top click the one flashing with the word
CONNECT and look at the bottom of the display you
should see a status of what is going on if it says "Idle & ready for action" your
done .
if it says "Unable to authenticate please check
quota and user password ect" you have it wrong and will need to recheck the user password ect you
entered. till it does work if you get totaly lost here you can always call your ISP support and ask
for the dam News Server login needed.
it is not illegal to use this service so you are not
breaking any laws.
ok if we all have the "Idle & ready for
action" we can close the newsleecher application down
we done setting it up.
ok now install Smartpar and winzip and daemon tools .
just use the default settings as they work fine.
ok ready to test this system out then here we go
Code:
Registry Rescue v2.8
http://www.newzbin.com/972728 (1.1MB)
alt.binaries.w***z.ibm-pc.0-day
the above is a tiny part of an email i get every day
from a website called newzbin.com they have a team that look at the main groups and
report new posts so lets say someone posts a new movie there team go and find all
the rar files that you need to download to make the movie work and put all the links to
download these files into 1 text file called a NZB file so when that file is OPENED newsleecher the
application we just setup see's its an NZB file and then opens up it loads the contents
of the TEXT file into the app and connects to your ISP News server and then starts to
auto download the movie into the download folder you setup a few mins ago . now depending on your
conection speed and the size of the files your gona download newsleecher will give you
a ETA on time to compleate.
NZB files are the secret here they do all the hard work
sites like newzbin create these NZB files but they also expect you to be a subscriber
to there system to be allowed to get them . newzbin for example costs 0.25p (UK) a week
so for 13 pound a year you can have access to it all . now we know some here cant
afford to pay these fee's so i'm having a new area created so we can have some that can afford
the fee to grab some of these NZB files and UPLOADED them directly to the forum so
members can simply click to save these files so we can all enjoy the power of NG's .
ok so what the hell is smartpar and whats it do..
simple it fixes broken downloads . ok movie has 50 rar files of 15meg each to make the
whole movie up . on a newsgroup posts are limited to 5000 lines per post
. so what they do is split the 15meg rar files into say
60 files each with
5000 lines per file . the newsleecher then downloads
each of the 60 part files
and then glues them all together to remake the 15meg
rar file .
but sometimes one or 2 of these 5000 lines posts get
lost and the rar file
is then incompleate ie: a bad rar file and it wont ever
extract so you just
downloaded a 800meg waste of space set of files that
are useless .
or are they Razz you will 99% of the time also see
extra files being downloaded
theses have the file extension (.PAR2) these contain
information to rebuild
incompleate broken part files so the 15meg rar file can
now be made good .
it does have limits but so far in all my time i have
only had 1 movie that would not
repair and I had to bin it . a realy good system IMO ..
winrar well its industry standard aint it ..
daemon tools well i use it a lot to save me burning
DVDs i can mount a DVD iso file
and watch the Movie on my PC no disks needed . it has a
million other uses but thats one i use it for.
the following post contains a sample of an email i
receive from newzbin everyday telling me the latest
release info i normaly click on the item i want it
opens the webpage up and members will see a button
marked "GET MESSAGE ID'S " i click that and
they send me the needed NBZ file i open it and in mins
im playing that new game / watching that new movie or
installing that great application i always wanted
you get the idea im sure ..
downside is depending on your ISP there could be extra
costs involved if they limit the amount of data
your allowed to download ie: 5 gigs per moth or
something like that.
NZB files can be hard to get if you do not have an account
with a service like newzbin.com
(my advice is to subscribe hell you can try it for 8
weeks for £2 UK thats some downloads
lets say you download the first day WINDOWS XP CORP INC
Service PACK 2 worth £140 UK
and maybe 3 new PS2 games @ £30 UK each and maybe 2
MOVIES that arnt even out yet
no value you can see that on a daily / weekly cost it
is well worth it .
but before anyone here runs off and subscribes to
anything please STOP STOP STOP
we will post daily some of the NZB files we may even
have a request or something setup
so you can 100% confirm you can run and work with NG's
for ZERO costs . if you cant work them , all it cost you was a few mins of your
time and you dloaded 4 small files .
good luck guys this is not as compleate as i wanted it
to be but those in the group who know me also know why my time is limited so sorry im
selling it shorter than i wanted. but it has enough clear and simple directions to get anyone with almost zero knowhow to a NG's
downloading pro in less than 10 mins
here are a few file to practise on .
these files have a life expectancy of 5 to 6 days form
date of post so DONT complain in 8 days they dont work..
Musicmatch Jukebox Plus v10.00.1025b
No1 DVD Ripper Se V1.3.39
U2 - The Best of 1990-2000
click on them and save or open them if you installed
newsleecher right they will auto open it and download if they open it and the
download does not start check that in OPTIONS / ADVANCED , "auto connect
on startup" is ticked or simply click the connect icon when it has opened
to start the download ..
if they open as XML pages or when you right click and
save as they try and save as .xml pages then download this file
that is a rar of the 3 files above just extract it and
open the nzb files
remember though you dont need to read these files they
are just to tell the newsleecher where to go and get what you want
