I installed LottaNZB via ppm, resolved the dependencies, and nothing works. It created an entry in the menu, but I click and nothing happens. Any help would be awesome. I don't want to use anything but puppy, but I love usenet.

I have never been able to get lottaNZB to work in puppy, I don't know why. But, I got SABnzb to work without too much fuss. Take some minor compiling, but you can do it.

Check out my instructions in this thread...

You will need to get the devx for polarpup, different to the ones mentioned in those instructions, but from there, it should be all the same.

devx is here http://smokey01.com/pemasu/Polarpup-005/

Hope that gets you going
