ok couple of things:
I got the new download and got it working. It let me post ok but the post i did sent about 5 messages, some with the headers in which was a bit bizarre. I thought it might be corrpution in the database from old failed attempts to post so started again, and posting worked.
Now:
1) I am getting this a lot
Code:

after it finises a run of article download. Any ideas?
2) Worried about numbers of articles/posts coming through.
Can you explain what usnet_ref and usenet_article are for so i can understand. These are my stats
usnet_ref = 16520 entries
usnet_article = 3179 entries
threads = 724
posts = 1265
it just feels that i should have more threads and posts then i do.
Thanks,
I am going to continue playing.
p.s. i still get heavy heavy failed downloads form alt.tv.stargate-sg1 which is strange, it is a prefectly valid newsgroup. alt.tv.farscape however has very very few. I wonder why that is? perhaps if you have a chance you could have a play with that newsgroup.

Anyway, it is a pretty amazing hack i really love it just hope these few things can be ironed out
cheers
