Overall, like the rest of the NetFerret collection, NewsFerret is worth its weight in gold. And thanks to advertiser support, you can download and use the entire search suite for free. Subscriptions are also available for those who would rather not be bombarded by advertisements.
Pros: Quick, easy to use; few apps exist that search newsgroups to find specific articles
Cons: Only as reliable as the news server that it contacts; no longer developed, supported, or available for download
