Agent can be downloaded at

It appears to me that you download Agent, the full program, and can
use it for thirty days, afterwards you're supposed to pay for a
license or it will revert to Free Agent which has fewer features. I
use Free Agent and it's fine, a very good newsreader.



If you like the free version, I'll send you a registration number.
This will hold you for a year or so. I have a code generator program.

No thanks. I like Free Agent as it is and actually want as few
features as possible so I don't have to mess with the program, check
out this feature and then the next one and decide how I want it and
blah blah blah. The simpler it is the better for me. :-)

Derek, you sound like a fellow "wimp." I too cry "Kiss" (keep it
simple stupid), but then am so happy with myself when I discover a
neat new feature. Once a complicated program is learned it is nice
to have the options. Every so often, I still find a new twist to
using Agent pay version, such as customizing the tool bar to show only
icons I really use or adding an icon that sorts the posts by thread.
I suspect that customizing feature is not part of the free version.
