I bought Agent many years ago for about the price of a good bottle

whiskey and never looked back. Sometimes it is worthwhile having a
licensed copy of a commercial product. If for nothing else, you are
supporting the guy who wrote it. You can also get support when you
have a problem. I got a free upgrade when yenc files showed up.

I have a licensed copy of Agent, albeit a version a few years old. I
don't like it now, and I didn't like it then. I am more than happy
with Thunderbird for email and newsgroups.

The thing I like about Agent is it is not "installed". You just run it
from the EXE and it would probably run from a CD if you assigned
working areas on oxide.
I can load my agent directory on another machine, run it and then just
delete the directory and it is gone. I keep two iinstances on this
machine, one for binaries and one for text.

I don't download or upload binaries.

I use portable Firefox and portable Thunderbird from a USB key.

My aren't you the technologist. Why is a news group's contents so
important to you?

Forget to take your smart pill again, d.f.?

That's Mr. Dumfoch Dropout to you!

I'll ask the question again. Why is a newsgroup's content so important to
you that you carry around a thumb drive with a newsreader and its
configuration files?
