Any suggestions on a Yenc decoder add on for IE-8, preferably a free one.
Good bad or ugly. I have resisted this protocol for years but now feel I
need it to view some files not make any. I know there are a zillion posts
through Google but I trust
opinions here.

P.S. Google hits mostly very dated.

Your question posted originally at 3:48pm, then again at 5:16pm. This is an
hour and twenty eight minutes apart.

Y-encoding is not a function of IE8, it's a function of the newsgroup and
the people that post there. Mostly, naked girls are posted with Y-encoding,
but any binary file could be encoded. What you need is a news reader that
will work with y-encoded files.

Thanks Jeff, I now realize why I missed it now as I have a filter to delete
any mention of whY--ENC if spelled properly. Blocked my own post, DAAaa
I also know its not a function of IE5-6-7-8 but there are ways to read it
from IE newsreader without changing to another. Hoping for suggestions newer
than Yproxy13 which is touted through-out Google searches but old.

Why would he do that?

If he's reading his newsgroups and email through IE and sites like
GoogleGroups, then the yenc messages will still come up in IE, and OE isn't
even running.
