The file offsets in BNR2 can only handle 1 GB before they wrap around,
so you need to either keep the file size below 1 GB or switch to BNR3.

If it is reaching the 1 GB limit the first time you refresh a single
group, then you need to open the Properties window for that group (or
that server) and set the "Download at most ____ articles" setting to
some amount like 100000 to prevent it from downloading so many
headers. Or you can switch to BNR3, which does not have this problem.
