Version: Ozum 4.01
"Great program! Best out there!!!"
Pros: I love Ozum! I used to use NewsShark, but the dang program became way too bloated and would use 90% of my CPU. Ozum is a dramatic improvement over EVERY other newsgroup reader out there.
Cons: Sometimes take a long time or stops responding when showing posts (headers) when switching from one subscribed newsgroup to the next one. Might be my RAM though.

Version: Ozum 4.01
"Great for smaller newgroups, but can't handle large ones"
Pros: User Friendly configuration and options, great GUI. Drag and drop make it very easy to use so you can keep track of everything you download AS you download them
Cons: MEMORY!! Newgroups that exceed 500,000 headers will consume your computer. I tried to load a group with 3,000,000+ headers (Yeah, I know... insane), and after coming back to the computer after 5 hours, it STILL had not completed. Android News didn't give me this problem. The temp file of the headers had reached 2 gigs, and my RAM usage was 80% (of 1 gig) used up by this newsreader!
