To add a positive angle to the discussion, what other newsreaders do people
use? FreeAgent and OE are most common but what other programs do people
recommend?

I too have used both of those as well as Gravity, but have finally settled
for Dialog. It is extremely powerful, allowing scripting to be used to
personalise the settings. I can associated different sounds with various
posters, colours along the same lines and different signatures for
different news groups. It really is very flexible, but I wouldn't
recommend it for the beginner.

For those using Outlook Express, a most useful addition is Quotefix. It
fixes many of the problems associated with posting with OE. Here is a site
where it is explained:
