WinVN Usenet News Reader

Last update March-26-2010
My favorite Usenet News reader WinVN has been dormant in the development
department for more than a decade, so I've updated it myself. I initially updated the original NASA
maintained source from here ,
but later found a much improved German version maintained by Peter Heirich.
I've incorporated my changes into these versions. I used Jordan
Russell's nice, free, installation program INNO
Setup to handle WinVN's install/uninstall.
