They trash/abort news articles as they download, which contain certain 
words or phrases, specified in the kill file.  Extremely useful if say 
you don't like downloading news with Adverts in, say FS emials, or 
emails by a certain annoying person etc. etc.

However as NOS doesn't support this (how annoying) I'll have to finish 
my own kill file program (which filters the news once it has 
downloaded).
