[rotax78]

Hi, i'm a newbie at all this, i have downloaded and have managed to  setup alt.binz so that i am able to connect to my server. how do i search for a film, I typed charlottes web in the search box of newzleech and got results but wht about the other pages (e.g. binsearch   xpat etc.) what are they for? also when i go to the newsgroups tab and click get groups a massive list forms, what am i supposed to do with them do i check the boxes and if so why. Yes i know i may appear thick, but we all have to start somewhere, is there anywhere that there is a user guide. thanks in anicipation

You've answered your own question.

but wht about the other pages (e.g. binsearch   xpat etc.) what are they for?

They are search engines.  Choose your own flavour and search away.  The boxes and options on each tab are pretty self-explanatory, but by all means come back if you have specific questions about any of them.

also when i go to the newsgroups tab and click get groups a massive list forms, what am i supposed to do with them do i check the boxes and if so why.

You can safely ignore this tab.

Perhaps this introduction to Usenet would be helpful first:
