Automate your genealogy research!

News Rover is the ideal tool for searching through genealogy newsgroups
for family names. 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 researching the McDaniel family
from England or Scotland, you could specify a search expression such as:

(McDaniel and England) or (McDaniel and Scotland)

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 genealogy newsgroups. You can
use it to search for collectables in forsale 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 Allows you to post Usenet messages and send e-mail.

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 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.
