Never used it, I have a newsreader which has yEnc support built in, but a little searching shows http://www.yenc32.com/ might do the trick for you.

ydecode adds yEnc support to newsreaders such as Outlook Express which don't support it, apparently it proxies the nntp connection and passes uuencoded text back which the newsreader can handle.

yes without this program the file are like all encrypted and you can't read them. an yEnc program will uncrypt it. Ydecode is a program that does just that, but the demo only decrypt about 70 or 80% of all the files you download. which is useless if you dling an rar file that has been split into multiple parts.
