Beta 2 has some more incremental changes:

• Spam filter now identifies rar files containing a .exe claiming to install a special codec to render the file.
• Updated spam filtering capabilities in the spam dll. You'll see FileType Version 1.13 in the logging tab at startup
• Changed spam filter DLL to only look into .rar files along with wmv/asf files.
• Test downloads will now convert to real downloads if you right click and select "Retry Download".
• Fixed issue where Test Downloads converted to real downloads were reverting back to a test download on restart.
• Increased number of search strings saved in the dropdown list to 50

The download link is on the Newsbin Beta Page.

Can you think about making this configurable? I would like to set it to zero (as in do not save any).

You can clear the list at any time under the Options menu in the menu bar at the top of Newsbin. It's called "Clear Filter History".

Understood, but I think newsbin could use some more privacy features. I would prefer if it did not keep a search history at all.
