What is SABnzbd?
SABnzbd is an open-source cross-platform binary newsreader written in Python.
It simplifies the process of downloading from Usenet dramatically, thanks to its friendly web-based user interface and advanced built-in post-processing options that automatically verify, repair, extract and clean up posts downloaded from Usenet. SABnzbd also has a fully customizable user interface, and offers a complete API for third-party applications to hook into.

Yes, we said there wouldn’t be another RC!
However, we think we finally cracked the SSL problems.
The bad recovery from a broken internet connection is fixed.
And it looks like the speed is up too.
OK, it brushes up Plush too (again).
If this release presents no new problems, the light is green for 0.4.0Final.
The short-list:
- SSL fix
- Plush improvements
- Warning indication on all pages
- Fixed crash on Linux when “download” or “complete” folders are unmounted volumes.
Download here.

RC3 had a unpleasant surprise for new users and fresh installs. It crashed on Config->Folders.
This has been fixed with RC4.
Sorry about this inconvenience.

Yes, I did it again.
Due to insufficient testing on a “fresh install”, some problems remained in 0.4.0-rc1.
The new PAR2 program missed a DLLÂ (msvcp71.dll) that many people already have, but not all.
Some removed obsolete options were not completely removed, which causes problems for people who start with a fresh install, i.e. with a new sabnzbd.ini. If you re-used your old INI file, there was no problem.
A “Thank you” for the early downloaders fro reporting this quickly.
Before the end of the weekend there will be an RC2 available.
I’m sorry for any inconvenience.
