My PC failed and it is not worth repairing. I have reinstalled Newsbin and logged in successfully. I believe my 'NewsGroup Direct' settings are correct but I get the following error when I try to download something.

[12/15 15:27:47] ERROR Downloader: Command Exception NEWS SERVER ERROR: Primary server SendCommand - Failed: 430 no such article Cmd: BODY <4f27d760$0$28014$c3e8da3$f017e9df@news.astraweb.com> Primary server

Please ca anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?

You are trying to leech content that has been removed from your preferred Usenet host, Astraweb, in your case. This is not a Newsbin Pro fault.

Thank you JayPea
Is there any way to limit the search results to stuff I can download? I don't remember having this problem on my old PC!

The problem is the search engine doesn't know what's on your news server. it has a listing of all files that were on the server at some point.

You might find the files have been removed or you might find the files are too old for your server.
