Publisher's description

From PictureAgent.com :

PictureAgent is an NNTP client designed to search specified newsgroups for posts that meet your criteria. It will then download and decode findings into a specified directory. PictureAgent is perfect for newcomers to Usenet, since it requires only a hostname and download directory to set up. This release offers separate download directories for each newsgroup, maintains a history list to reduce duplicate files, offers thumbnail and full-size images of the last picture downloaded, features authentication capabilities for hosts that require usernames and passwords, and more. This trial will only download a limited number of pictures before registration is required.

"Don't download unless you're going to pay"

by darkladuke05 on September 16, 2003

Summary: Great little program, however, don't download it unless you plan on paying for it. The demo doesn't let you save compressed compies.

"Perfect 'set and leave' downloader."

on April 30, 2002

Summary: I have used it since Sept 2000. I've needed to re-establish it onto two different hard drives during that time and they've come across with the method and password pretty quickly. Highly recommended
