	APicviewer v4.8

---------------------------------

Thank you for trying this program.

The purpose of this program is to retrieve picture files from USENET 
news and display/save-to-disk the favorite ones.

ApicViewer will search the Usenet newsgroup that you select, then it will download, decode and 
display pictures with high quality standard.

Pictures are displayed on a browser and can be viewed on a full screen. 
APicViewer lets you see pictures as they download and browse them off-line and email them to 
your friends.

Any unwanted pictures can be deleted. Header information including file size, 
dimensions, newsgroup,author, subject, etc, is available before each download.

APicviewer avoids redundant searching and duplicate downloading, saving you 
time and bandwidth.
