Version 6.52 Beta 4 Available...

It has been awhile since the last beta because we've been working on re-vamping the Search server. The new server is now online and now has the capability to tag suspected spam posts as well as identify password protected posts. This version of Newsbin displays special icons to identify these posts when you search. You get an icon with an explanation mark to the left, along with a red line highlight if it is obvious spam. If it is encrypted, you see a lock icon to the left of the subject, and a yellow highlight line. These posts can be hidden by setting the options under Options/Spam Filter Options. Currently only results within the last 6 months are tagged in this manner. We will continue rebuilding the database prior to the last 6 months over the coming months. We hope these changes will make it easier to find the stuff you are looking for without having to wade through a bunch of spam and password protected posts.

Here is the summary of changes:

  • Now has the capability to hide encrypted and/or identified spam posts from search results as an option.
  • Fixed issue receiving error popups for some types of search errors when resolving files.
  • Processed NZB files are stored in the loaded folder again, due to popular request.
  • Added new compaction code with filename removal when there is a duplicate filename in subject.
  • Increased NZB Password length limit when included in the NZB Filename, was limited to 60 bytes.
  • Now removes the password if it exists when using the NZB Filename for pathing.
  • Support allowing zip files inside of RAR files.
  • Change to make servers with "Typical Retention" more efficient. Looks like 4x faster than before.
  • Hopefully fixed intermittent crash issue reported when closing a tab.

The download link is on the Newsbin Beta Page.
