Version: Ozum 4.03
"vast improvement over prior versions"
Pros: I found it to be very fast compared to other versions. The graphics have improved greatly.
I like the fact that it integrates most of the formats for viewing media in 1 concise package. Good work Ox Insight.
Cons: Waiting for the next set of improvements.

Version: Ozum 4.03
"Extreamly slow. Lacks search in header list. Poor picture viewer."
Pros: Search across multiple newsgroups.
Cons: I have only tried to use this program for about four hours and finally gave up in frustration. In a newsgroup with many headers (i.e > 50,000) to do a "Select All" takes a very long time and to delete the selected headers takes so long that I thought the program had froze and only through trial and error finally determined that the program was just slow. I was also unable to figure out how to search and isolate within the header list (e.g. for a particular poster), a feature which I consider a must have. Additionaly, the built in picture viewer only displays a small portion of most pictures. I had been using the "Binary News Reaper" beta, which I consider to have an almost perfect user interface, but it has some problems and no one appears to be working on it any more.
