Saving Binary Attachments in Thunderbird 1.5

| I'm new to binary downloads. Can you suggest any method to speed up the
downloads besides getting a new modem?
I download attached .jpg and .bmp binaries from Usenet groups using a
dial up modem.
Thunderbird 1.5 takes minutes to download the message and attachment and
when I save the attachment <file/attachments/file.jpg/save As> it takes
further minutes - in all a long time.
When I go to <tools/options/attachments/download actions/view and edit
actions> so as to arrange to have .jpg and .bmp files automatically
saved to my folder it is impossible to add a "download action".
At least I cannot see how.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for that. I have Leechget 2005. I did not know that I could use
Leechget to download Usenet files.
