trallyus The IDEA Man Registered: 11/10/03 Posts: 28285 Loc: ohio	I almost missed out on this as I am a registered user of Forte's Agent Newsgroup Reader. They finally released version 2.0 of Agent and are offering the upgrade to version 1.x registered users for $15 So if your a registered Agent user, go to https://www.forteinc.com/agent/upgrade-form.php The offer ends when they release version 2.1 of Agent After that it goes back to being $29 bucks to register it. _________________________ We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. -Aesop, 620 BC - 560 BC

trallyus The IDEA Man Registered: 11/10/03 Posts: 28285 Loc: ohio	I just learned how to set up a watch filter in forte's Agent for the first time and love it Since I usally use Xnews , I do all the grabbing via hand marking what I want, but now I can just add a keyword like comic or pdf or something like that and have it download that type of file when ever it comes up in the newsgroup list I really like being able to do this as this way I don't miss stuff I want to download I heard version 2.0 was just a release to update the look of Agent and the true changes wont be seen until version 2.1 So I can't wait to see what happens then. I really like creating my own watch filters but will need to read more to get full use of it. _________________________ We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. -Aesop, 620 BC - 560 BC

Looks like Forte is going from 2.0 to 3.0 instead of releasing a 2.1 from the looks of it I wonder how much longer we have to wait now ? At least the 3.0 version will be free to 2.0 users as supposedly stated at http://www.forteinc.com/news/bulletin.php?id=agent30.php Looks like the upgrade page is still available for those who registered 1.x and have not paid the 15 bucks to upgrade to version 2.0 _________________________ We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. -Aesop, 620 BC - 560 BC

It's not a bad newsreader, but if all your gonna get it binary newsgroups, i suggest newsbin at www.newsbin.com It is alot faster at pulling down news then free agent I do like free agents watch abuility though _________________________ We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office. -Aesop, 620 BC - 560 BC
