NewsLeecher stelt je in de gelegenheid artikelen van nieuwsservers te downloaden. Het programma kan meerdere servers tegelijk gebruiken en heeft een SuperSearch-unctie. Met deze functie is het niet nodig om eerst alle groepen te updaten om je download te vinden. NewsLeecher heeft uitgebreide configuratiemogelijkheden.

Changes in 3.9 beta 10:
(Repair'n'Extract) Added full support for standard split sets.
(Repair'n'Extract) Added full support for RAR split sets.
(Repair'n'Extract) Added full support for singe-file PAR split sets.
(Repair'n'Extract) The type of the individual Repair'n'Extract sets (RAR, PAR Split, etc.) is now shown in the Repair'n' Extract listview.
(SuperSearch) When performing a SuperSearch search, detailed SuperSearch connection information is now written to the log. Useful when tracking the reason for SuperSearch connection problems.
(Repair'n'Extract) Fixed a pretty serious bug where the NewsLeecher Repair'n'Extract feature would sometimes delete files which were not supposed to be deleted. Happened with non-archive PAR2 sets, when the 'Extract to sub folder' setting was not enabled.
Fixed bug where the destination folder wasn't always correctly set when importing NZB files.
Fixed bug where "When Empty Quit/Shutdown PC" was still activated if group headers were being downloaded.
Fixed bug that made it possible to bypass a set tray password.
