Once your happy have fun with downloading binaries

Use newsbin pro or other binary reader and subscribe to alt.binaries of your choice
My b/f has used the newsgroups for a long time for d/l "binaries" - but he uses Grabbit and/or NewsLeecher... I just leave him to it tho and just pick out anything of interest when he refreshes. I never actually asked how it works (and I don't think he ever posted as he sounded confused when I asked him).

The help FAQ was quite straightforward and once I'd realised that "text" was the way to go it was much quicker - being a girl I do tend to "read the manual" first... or at least speedread
