[502 Insufficient credits] - sounds like you haven't paid your Astraweb bill

NZBSRUS is down for good. The redirect leads you to a forum, iphoneusers.com that explains the reasons why.

That's AFTER they've been unpacked from the RAR

<sigh> and my hopes were dashed so soon

It's certainly not a major problem for me, it would be a nice to have. I would think that resources would be better utilised detecting the encrypted archives.
Now they ARE a problem (that I know you're working on)

I think these files are all contained within the downloaded RAR files.

"Abort when executable content detected"
I think this would be awesome if it could be switched on by category, or a global option with a category override.

Can't help you with point one but the music groups have been flooded with shit lately. That's what the exe and bin files are. Don't open them, delete them. They're viruses.
A lot of the indexing sites use the Newznab software to automate the indexing and they're struggling to filter this rubbish out.

Has your Astraweb subscription expired?

No idea about newshosting. I use Astraweb.
Check out these links:-
Astraweb / Giganews / Supernews.

Virgins servers don't support SSL, so you're stuck with 119 if you use them. Premium servers such as Astraweb & Giganews offer the SSL on 443.
If you stay with Virgin, then schedule your downloads outside the throttling period.

Would one way to do this be to use different templates? Well one designated remote connections and one designated local subnet, then depending on which one was accessed, have the username & paswword or not. I don't know if this is possible, but SAB already has a secondary web interface. Could so...

I've occasionally started to get this since installing Newznab on the same PC (windows). I just assumed it was that. Doesn't appear to be causing any trouble.

I use the bookmark (or RRS cart for newznab) extensively. As I'm not at home a lot (work on the rigs), the RSS feature on these sites is very important to me. The additional API features on omgwtfnzbs appear to be new, but will fit in nicely to programs such as CouchPotato and Sickbeard. Thanks for ...

I am ;) The send to SAB can be accomplished exactly the same way with the RSS bookmark, albeit it wont be instant as you have to wait for the RSS poll (30 minutes in my case), but the results are the same. I would also be reluctant to give a site my SAB details. Granted you can store them in a cooki...

What sort of Sab integration are you looking for? With omgwtfnzbs, you can bookmark nzbs, and have Sab fetch the bookmarks via RSS feed, just as you can with newznab and the cart function. CouchPotato has omgwtfnzbs built in and I'm sure it's only a matter of time before Sickbeard has that function ...
