I use a combination of Calypso and Xnews.
If you insist on using one program, you can try Noworyta or Gravity.

limited version.

A Quote from the FAQ
<quote>
4) WHAT IS COMPUTER FREEWARE ?
legally obtainable computer programs/utilities that anyone with an
internet connection can obtain free of (additional to internet) cost
and does not have any "limitations" as to it's use, e.g. only being
able to be used for a certain time period and/or only having some
features able to be used.
Programs that cost money, or are time limited, are commonly called
"shareware" or "demos". Those that have some functions that cannot
be used are commonly called "crippleware". Programs that include
advertising (generally called Adware) should be discussed in
alt.comp.adware. All these are generally considered inappropriate
for discussion in alt.comp.freeware <snip>

So are you saying that the time limited function doesn't count for
Dialog?

Yep. Before the time limit arrives there will be another freeware
release. So "effectively" there is no time limit.
Most "time limited" programs are NOT able to be replaced before
the time period is completed with 100% working versions.
Most "time limited" programs do NOT promise to release an un time
limited version within a certain time period.
Regards, John.

But "truthfully" there *is* a time-limit. This is because you *do*
have to install the newer version to continue using it.
When I select a program, I don't want to have to mess with it
unless it's something like AV or anti-spyware programs where this
can't be avoided. Regardless, in those cases the programs will still
do what they did when you first downloaded them- that is, search for
the types of villains that they had listed in their updates at that
time. They *don't* stop working altogether like 40tude Dialog
currently does.
Promises are only that. Promises. The proof is in the doing.

But what happens if you pass the expiration date for the defs? Does
Avast cease to work, or does it only nag you to install new defs? You
might (or might not) be able to find out by temporarily setting your
system clock ahead.

Truthfully there is "effectively" no time limit if one keeps
downloading the new betas until there is a freeware version that
isn't time limited.
Fine. Then don't download Dialog. Your choice. What you like/don't
like doing won't change the effective freeware status of Dialog.
If I said that I didn't like to have to constantly download eg.
Regcleaner to get features previous versions had disabled/working
incorrectly then I wouldn't then say it wasn't freeware. Due to my
particular likes/dislikes for re-downloading.
If you said that you don't like "time limited" freeware then I am sure
that many people would agree with you. Those people however would
probably be complaining about the time limitation not pretending that
a freeware program is not a freeware program.
Yep, and Marcus has regularly promised to do many things and done as
promised.
Regards, John.

I set the time ahead for 2 years. Will not d/l ref files or prog u/dates.
Error or invalid user key. The program will still run. A lot of good that
wil do. It's time to contact the company.

As a previous poster wrote: "If buy a time-limited payware, does that
mean it isn't payware?"
IMO "the FAQ" that Mr. Corliss keeps thumping us with is way out of
line with common sense on several issues.
