It as become increasingly annoying the number of passworded posts that are now on usenet. What i do is to grab an nzb and download the first rar file, right click it and try to extract if its passworded and i cant find the password on any of the usenet forums i dump the nzb & try another. Saves you from downloading the entire post that way. Rather dump 50MB than download 8GB and find its passworded

This method also works for your second point, if you can extract the partial file you can see what format its in. You can also use a program like media info to verify exactly what format its in.
