Goodbye Hellanzb, Hello SABnzbd+

I've been using Hellanzb with Ubuntu for almost two years now.  It was easy to setup since it was already in the repository and it worked great most of the time.  sometimes though hellanzb would give me grief and not download for some reason or not unpack files properly.  (I think that last release of hellanzb was almost 3 years ago)  I got pretty fed up two weeks ago and decided to give SABnzbd+ a try.  I read recently that there was an Ubuntu PPA for SABnzbd+ so it was very easy to install and get up and running.  I've been using it now for two weeks and have been very pleased.  kudos to the developers and testers and everyone else that contributes to this project.

I installed the firefox plugin for SABnzbd+  I wish it would integrate into ubuntu's notification system or gnome's panel as an applet.

Filed as Ticket 370 (long term item) for SABnzbd itself.

nhasian I'm with you.  The switch from Hellanzb has been great. There are a few issues I need to work out but other than that it has been like a dream.
