Check or create SFV files. checkSum+ will handle md5, sfv & cvs files (please, do not confuse with cvs files, since these can be any kind of database file). These files store "checksum" information about files, and will allow this and other applications know if the related files are or not corrupted. You will often find these files in USENET newsgroups and other places, where there is a risk of data loss. So, the original distributor of some files, usually *large* files, will create and also distribute some of these files, so the final recipient of such files can check for the integrity of these. This is very useful, eg, for multi-segment files. When you attempt to join them, if one of them is corrupted, the attempt will simply fail, and you won't know what segment is corrupted. But using these files (md5, sfv or cvs), you can know what is the bad file, and re-download it again, instead of re-downloading all the stuff.
Home Page Hogwasher is the ultimate newsgroup browser for OS X. File downloads in multiple connections across multiple servers, thread trees and extensive filtering for keeping your discussions accessible, and a complete email client just in case.
Home Page iSFV is an easy to use integrity checker for SFV files. Use it to test for corrupt files in packages that come with SFV files. You can also use it to edit or create your own SFV files.
Home Page If you usually download movies, music or large archives from news groups, public web servers, streamload, edonkey or whatever place, this is your tool. If you'd like transportate a 5MB document in a floppy disk to your home, or fit a 400MB archive in two ZIP discs, or even move a 7GB film to a computer with a DVD burner and you only have a single CD-RW, this is your tool. If you wish share a 6MB document with your PC-friends over the internet and you can only put up online chunks of 1MB because of your ISP restrictions, this is your tool. 13 MacHacha will do a simple job: split archives into smaller parts and join them when requested. What are the supported formats by MacHacha? Currently, both split & join: Hacha, WinSplit, FastSplit, Split&Concat, HJSplit & UNIX/Linux. You can also join documents from Hacha's newest version and Windows MasterSplitter (see FAQ in this distribution) and RAR normal and multi-segment files.
Home Page MacPAR deLuxe is a utility program that runs on the Apple Macintosh. It is useful to you if you download (or upload) binary files from internet newsgroups (a.k.a. "Usenet"). Often, binary content comes in the form of sets of many files that together form a "rar" archive. MacPAR deLuxe assist you in combining these files after the download finishes. - It verifies that the file set is complete, and all files are undamaged. MacPAR deLuxe can recover missing information by processing so called "par" and "par2" files. - After the verification step, MacPAR deLuxe unpacks the data. If possible with its built-in unrar engine, or otherwise by launching the appropriate program.
Home Page MacSOUP is an offline reader for Usenet newsgroups and Internet e-mail. If you don't know what newsgroups are, you probably don't need this program. MacSOUP is primarily a newsreader, its e-mail capabilities are somewhat rudimentary compared to "real" e-mail clients.

Home Page MT-NewsWatcher is a Usenet news client for the Macintosh. Usenet is a globally distributed news network over which many thousands of people distribute messages every day, and which contains discussion groups on virtually every topic under the sun. MT-NewsWatcher allows you to quickly and efficiently target the articles you wish to read, with sophisticated yet easy to use filtering, searching and sorting features. The program also makes viewing and saving binaries from newsgroups easy, and works transparently across multiple news servers. MT-NewsWatcher is derived from an earlier program called simply "NewsWatcher", by John Norstad of Northwestern University, but greatly enhances that program's feature set. To stop NewsWatcher from crashing on Lion, turn off Lion's Resume feature by unchecking the System Preferences > General > "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps" checkbox.
Home Page NZB Drop frees you from crawling through millions of headers to get at the content you want. With an NZB file specifying your desired content, simply drag and drop unto NZB Drop and experience the simplest, drop dead fastest way ever to retrieve files from Usenet newsgroups.
Home Page The small and efficient NZB client for OSX, optimized for performance and ease of use. NZBVortex is very feature complete and extremely tuned for optimal download speeds and minimal system resource usage. Just search for or add your desired NZB then let take NZBvortex control: it will download the minimal required data to complete the download, uncompress, cleanup and move the download to your desired location. No overflood in settings or info: we take care of all the technical stuff in the background. A real set-and-forget download application: add a NZB and NZBVortex will take care of the rest.
Home Page A drag and drop application to post a folder or folders of files to specified newgroups using MT-Newswatcher.
Home Page RAR is a compression and decompression program that allows you to save files, password protect them, or even take large files and break them up into many smaller parts. RAR is available for several platforms, and you can even download the decompression part for free.
Home Page 1. What is this This is a very simple interface to the rar binary. And RAR is a popular compression format in the PC-side-of-the-life. Keep in mind that the RAR format won't support OSX-specific flags (ie, resource fork). For advanced options, use the rar binary in CLI mode itself, or look for other interfaces. 2. Usage Use the Preferences window to adjust some settings (password if needed, segments if needed, etc.) and then drop onto Rarify's icon your file(s)/folder(s) in order to compress them. 3. Requirements & Installation Rarify will run under OS X 10.4 and 10.5, both Intel and PPC architectures. 1. Drop Rarify onto your favorite location. Due to licensing issues, I prefer you install the rar binary manually yourself (so you can read its readme, read its license, purchase a copy or whatever you wish). 2. Install if needed the rar binary. To do so: -Go to http://www.rarlabs.com/ downloads section. -Choose your favorite download (usually, the newer version of the rar binary for OS X) and download it. -Unpack. -Make a new Finder window ("Apple + N"). Type "Apple + Shift + G". Type "/usr/local/bin". -Now, copy the unpacked "rar" binary file onto the "/usr/local/bin" window. Authenticate as administrator if needed. If you prefer not doing such a thing (!), you can copy as well the rar binary to the following destination (instead of "/usr/bin" or "/usr/local/bin"): -Rarify/Contents/Resources.. 3. You can instead use the "Update RAR binary..." menu item under the application menu and these steps will be done automagically by Rarify.
Home Page SABnzbd is an Open Source Binary Newsreader written in Python. It's totally free, incredibly easy to use, and works practically everywhere. SABnzbd makes Usenet as simple and streamlined as possible by automating everything we can. All you have to do is add an .nzb. SABnzbd takes over from there, where it will be automatically downloaded, verified, repaired, extracted and filed away with zero human interaction.
Home Page In Internet newsgroups large files often are split into smaller parts since messages can not be of more than a certain size to be able to post them in newsgroups. For that reason you can find often binary files that are split in parts like filename.mp3.001, filename.mp3.002, filename.mp3.003, etc. While it is possible to put these parts together using commands in the Terminal, not everybody is comfortable with the command line. That's why I decided to write a small utility that makes it easy to split large files or merge pre-split files -- all from a comfortable OS X interface. This simplifies the process of uploading and downloading split files from the Internet, as well as making it possible to store a large file across two or more CD-R's.
Home Page tin is a threaded NNTP and spool based UseNet newsreader for a variety of platforms.
Home Page The Unarchiver is a much more capable replacement for "BOMArchiveHelper.app", the built-in archive unpacker program in Mac OS X. The Unarchiver is designed to handle many more formats than BOMArchiveHelper, and to better fit in with the design of the Finder. It can also handle filenames in foreign character sets, created with non-English versions of other operating systems. I personally find it useful for opening Japanese archives, but it should handle many other languages just as well. Supported file formats include Zip, Tar-GZip, Tar-BZip2, Rar, 7-zip, LhA, StuffIt and many other more or less obscure formats.
