Re: Giganews Search Utility (was Re: BNR2 Search Utility)

It looks like Newleecher has it own indexing site
which it uses. 

Really don't know what Newsbin pro does. Doesn't say
anything about how it's search utility works. Have
tried to use this program with limiting success. It is
very fast at what it does when you get the searches
working properly.

Have asked Giganews for more information but they are
not as fast as they normally are.

This really would be a very good utility to add to
BNR2 if we can get more info on it. Much better than
xpat which many servers do not use because of the
drain on their servers.

Would appreciate any other info on this utility.
Thanks.
