In case you don't know what a NZB is, a NZB is the torrent equivalent for newsgroups:

I needed to find a portable NZB client today and stumbled across Unzbin:
http://www.unzbin.com

It reminds me of uTorrent and is portable and very small (134kb). However, it's not stealth and requires .NET 2.0.
Settings and temp folders are saved in %APPDATA% and %LOCALAPPDATA%.

If you guys know of other freeware alternatives, let me know!

A few more I came across:

(Note - I haven't tested any of these yet)

SABnzbd - http://sabnzbd.org/ - compressed 9MB - Portable instructions are available here.

alt.binz - http://www.altbinz.net/ - compressed 2MB - Homepage says that the ZIP package is portable. Not sure if it's stealth.

NiouzeFire - http://www.ideosi.fr/solutions_eng.php - compressed 15.3 MB - App has a portable version. Not sure if it's stealth.

Binreader - http://www.binreader.com - compressed 15.1MB - App has a portable version. Again, not sure if it's stealth. I'm liking the minimal UI.
