How can I filter away all posts like

Periodically newsgroups are filled with similar posts.

I have tried with some filters like

[0-9a-zA-Z]{15}
[9-8a0z]{15}

without success

Hi, One of my favourite newsgroups - alt.binaries.e-book is being filled with garbage posts like 721ae6867a004949bfb9c77793125b82 [5/13] "721ae6867a004949bfb9c77793125b82.part4.rar" Any given day has hundreds of them. How to kill these with a filter, like if there are no blanks within the ...

Thanks. That solved the main window where the need was biggest.
The workspace window and the Task manager windows was not affected, but those are not a big issue to me.

I bought a 28 inch 4k monitor, but now the fonts in UE are extremely small for me to read.
Is there a way to increase the font sizes in UE?

Hi, My ISP is giving me an unstable network. In order check if the connection is working, I tried to use EasyNet Monitor to ping 8.8.8.8 (google) every 15 seconds, but that address was blocked after a couple of days, just reporting Lost Connection. Is there a way to set up UE to automatically, repea...

I switched to EasyNews and wanted to do a rescan of the newsgroup lists when I got this error. The connection is ok, I can download and upload through the connection. I created a new database, but I get the same error. I have no problems downloading headers from groups with this new database, so alm...

Did you run a thorough memory test lately?

Does this happen when you save to an internal hard drive?

Sounds like hardware problems to me.

Is it possible to filter out all the postings that did not receive a reply, so I can see if anybody replied to my postings? I am in a couple of NGs that has a zillion entries, and it is time consuming to browse through all the entries looking for a reply, and there is also a risk that I overlook som...

Hi Alex. Happy new year. When I prepare stuff for posting AND there is a power failure before the upload has finished, the list of prepared postings are lost. If, however, I terminate and restart UE before any power failure, UE remembers my list, and continues normally on restart. I tried the SAVE b...

Hi, I have a multiboot PC and where I run UE from more than one OS. When I boot Win7 the disk mappings are altered because Win7 insiste that that partition should be named C:, and this moves the other drives one step down the alphabet. As the default Save Directories are stored in a file, this messe...

Sometimes there is no PAR2 file for a RAR set, but an SFV file instead. When UE does not find a PAR2 file, the archive is left as-is, no unpacking, joining and deletion of PAR files. When the SFV file checks out OK, is it possible to have an option to unpack, join the files and delete the PAR files?...

I had less than 4000 short text messages in the database. All newsgroups was emptied, and all deleted headers was purged. The Task manager in the startup dialog finished in two seconds before everything went on vacation for about one minute. I have had millions of headers before with no rpoblems lik...

I have a problem when saving articles from newsgroups. If any author har more than one reply to a thread, all of the articles are saved with the same name, thus overwrithing what has already been saved. Is there an option somewhere that can be set to avoid this overwriting? I select all the messages...

I run UE with two different databases, in different location. I have only one instance of the executable file UE.EXE. I received the messaga about expiration last week, so I upgraded. I got a new license code that I applied. I still get the expiration expiration message on when I run with the other ...

All of a sudden the startup of UE has slowed down extremely. I have purged all deleted headers so the database is now 5MB (down from 981MB) and the reserved space is now 9.2MB (down from 1GB+). The free disk space is 115GB. I have run the diagnostics with no clues what might be wrong, but still the ...
