There are few ways to access files and messages on Usenet. The first is by using a program that connects to the server at a more direct level and provides more flexibility and control. If you have MS Outlook Express, you already have a newsreader (there is newsreader functionality built into Mozilla Thunderbird as well). In Internet Explorer just go to Tools, Mail and News, Read News - and there it is. It will let you connect to multiple servers, download, and view attachments. But it's quite limited: it doesn't always combine files correctly or understand compression formats, it doesn't allow for any kind of automated download, its searching is weak, and you have little control over its binary options.

To get these functions (and if you plan to download binaries very often, you will see how quickly they become necessary), you must install a dedicated newsreader program. Here are a few of the leading products.
