Version 6.20 Beta 2 has a couple more new features, a couple of bug fixes, and more performance improvements.

Summary:

• New option for updating headers "Use Download Age". Saves you from having to purge the header db to force use of the download age setting.
• Speed limiter only effects NNTP connections now. Leaves Internet Search and NBRemote interface alone.
• Re-worked parts of download engine to give better speeds on single connections.
• Made changes to better handle unexpected server errors.

These and more changes are listed on the Newsbin Beta Page, along with the download link.

when i hit delete(unfinished job) NB doesnt offer me to delete the files on disk as it used to do..
Did it get changed?What should i "hold" (shift\ctrl or whatever)while deleting to remove the files as well?

Look under Options/Confirmation Windows. Quade changed the default settings and some of them might have gotten turned off.

Holding the Shift key then hitting the Delete key when in the Files tab will delete files from the list and from disk. Just hitting delete only removes from the list.

There are two bugs in 6.20B2

1) Confirmation Windows settings get wiped out the first time you run it
2) Duplicate Detection system is not working

Quade has a new one with fixes for both of these issues, hopefully will do a quick-turn release and have it up today.
