After collecting and analyzing of sent to us users' opinions about this program it takes our editors award with a rate "5". This means that this program is popular and was found as convenient and useful.
Pluckit is a Windows program that automatically searches newsgroups for binary attachments. Supports yEnc and RAR. It downloads (plucks) them from the newsgroup to your hard drive. As if by magic, this program seeks out only the messages having pictures, grabs them, saves them to your hard drive, and then (only if you wish) displays them on your screen! All you have to do is tell Pluckit which groups you are interested in and then click the "Start Plucking" button. It's that simple; pictures will then just start flooding into your computer!
Pluckit can acquire literally thousands of JPG's, GIF's, AVI's, ZIP's, TXT and other binary files while running in the background.

Version: 9.5
My system runs on Windows Vista home edition, i downloaded Pluckit succesfully but it won't run on my system, the program doesn't find newsgroups from the server "news.quicknet.nl"
Hope you have an answer to this problem, i used Pluckit before on a Win 98 machine without problems and like the program very much!!
