I just recently subscribed to a paid newsgroup service (newshost.com), and am trying to get ***. I used newzbin.com and it has it listed on a.b.*** and a.b.*** (both added within the past few days), and after getting the header's from both groups, I can't find *** anywhere (i'm using the find function in grabit, searching for "***").

Am I doing somthing wrong here, why can't I find this flick?

look at the date of the post and the date of the earliest headers you have maybe its gone, and the file name might not exactly be what the poster's information that he posted it as for ex (and this is nothing specific just saying)

lets say its garfield, they might post it as

the.cat.you.love.to.hate.insertgroupnamehere.rxx

make sense?

it shouldn't have gotton lost to retention, it was reported posted on the 3rd of nov, the earliest posts that I have are like the 13th of october, and I know the file name, and couldn't find it either.

any other reasons why i cant find this movie?

Why are you downloading the headers? The whole purpose of newzbin is so you don't have to. If you are able to see the filenames just grab em by message id's.

don't think grabit supports .nbz or anything, does it?

If not, go get newsleecher. All your problems will be solved.

I prefer NZB-O-Matic if you're just going to be using NZB files to download and nothing else. Very simple and easy to use.

fair enough if the beta likes it. Why's he downloading group headers though?

better ask him that personally i dont use nzb files i like to browse headers and see whats about, i usually refresh every 24 hours so it isnt to painfull, i dont really bother with listings sites as they are usually wank! i always find what i need by browsing about.
