Just today when I tried to queue up a download, it says fetching information, and then dissapears. I check the errors in sab and it just says "Invalid NZB file ***** skipping (reason=reference to invalid character number, line=28976".
Anyone have any idea what that means or how to fix it?

A bad NZB file.
Can you open the NZB file in Notepad or Wordpad or whatever editor?
Or email it to bugs at sabnzbd.org
What's the source of the NZB file?

Ok, it seems to only be NZB files downloaded from Newzbin. Tried one from another site and it works fine.

I just had a friend try with my Newzbin account on his box and it works fine for him.... so maybe it is a Sab issue?

Update - It seems to be only new files on Newzbin.
