1. What is Grabber?
Grabber is a program designed to collect files attached to USENET news articles.
It will automatically handle single or multipart articles. It has support for
uuencoded or MIME/base64 attached objects. The user can set complex citerias and
filters to reduce the amount of unwanted objects (spam). Downloads can be
automatically prioritised based on criteria. Grabber can interact with Dial Up
netwroking to dial up and hang up your internet connection as required. It can
be run in a completely unattended mode to allow articles to be processed overnight
when the load is less. Grabber now includes an incorporated image and text browser
which can be used both to view downloaded images, but to easily add filter criteria
to exclude spammers. Grabber keeps a log of all downloaded objects or articles.
