Verwijderd attendeerde ons op een nieuwe release van GrabIt. Met dit programma is het mogelijk om in nieuwsgroepen verschillende soorten bestanden te zoeken en te downloaden. Hieronder staan de veranderingen ten opzichte van de vorige versie:
Changes:[break] Mirror 1
- New interface graphics! (created by Sami Mannila);

- Automatically resized columns will now be at least the width of their header-text;
- Pressing F5 will now remove the find filter;
