          Automate your collecting research!

News Rover is the ideal tool for searching through Usenet newsgroups for
messages about items that you collect.  Once you tell it what to look for,
News Rover will scan a set of newsgroups and collect all messages that
contain what you are searching for.  For example, if you are interested in
messages related to slide rules or calculators, you could specify a search
expression such as:

   slide rule or calculator

News Rover will then scan a set of newsgroups you select and collect any
messages that match the search expression. This searching is completely
automatic, so it works while you sleep, work, or play.  The search
expressions can be as simple as a single word, or they can be complex
expressions with AND, OR, NEAR, and NOT operators.

But News Rover is good for more than just searching collectables
newsgroups. You can use it to search for family names in genealogy
newsgroups, or for any other type of information in any newsgroups you
choose.  And News Rover is ideal for picture newsgroups.  It decodes both
UUencoded and MIME base64 images, and it combines and reconstructs binary
files that are split into multiple messages.

Here are some of the key features of News Rover:

   o   Scans newsgroups you specify while you sleep, work, and play.

   o   Automatically downloads messages and attached files so that they are
       available for instant access when you are ready to review them.

   o   Decodes attached files of all types (UUencoded and MIME base64).

   o   Displays a picture gallery of collected thumbnail size images.

   o   Selects messages based on include and/or exclude criteria to help
       you find a needle in a haystack and eliminate spam.  You can even
       use complex selection expressions with AND, OR, NEAR and NOT.

   o   Supports multiple "interest groups," each with sets of newsgroups,
       selection expressions, message database, and picture gallery.

   o   Remembers files already extracted and eliminates duplicates
       automatically.

   o   Saves parts of multi-part files, searches for the missing
       parts, and rebuilds the entire file when the last part arrives.
       It even combines parts found on different days and in different
       newsgroups.

   o   Allows you to post Usenet messages and send e-mail messages.

   o   Allows you to block all future messages from specified senders.

   o   Operates on a schedule you set up to use your phone line only
       when you don't need it.

   o   Automatically dials the provider and hangs up the phone when it
       is finished.

   o   Works with almost all Internet providers and news servers.

   o   News Rover is multi-threaded so you can read messages and view
       pictures while it downloads and decodes more messages.
