Through Feb 14, 2007, you can upgrade to Agent 4.2 for $15. Agent 4.2The very successful release of Agent 4.0 which included image display, enhanced crosspost detection, ignore sub-thread, and powerful email features has set the stage for Agent 4.2. This new release includes: NZB SupportAgent 4.2 streamlines the process of importing and exporting NZB files. With a simple double-click or drag-and-drop, Agent automatically processes NZB headers based on your preferences. Greater Database CapacityWe have doubled the size of Agent's database files while at the same time storing multi-part messages much more efficiently. The result is that in binary groups you can retrieve and keep up to 8 times more message headers than with previous versions. Windows Vista SupportAgent 4.2 is now ready to run under Microsoft's new Vista operating system. Smart AbbreviationsAgent 4.2 introduces smart abbreviations, a new way to view long folder names and binary headers when space is limited. New Installation ProgramAgent 4.2 introduces a new installation program that automatically determines if you're doing a new installation or an upgrade installation. It's easier now to set up desktop shortcuts and start menu items. New Address Book FeaturesAgent 4.2's address book contains a new record type, a routing address, so you can separate your personal contacts from your routing contacts. The address book allows you to view specific record types, has a "clone" command (New Copy of Contact) and allows you to merge contacts. Other Features and Problems FixedAgent 4.2 includes performance improvements and fixes a number of bugs.
