Binarries are non-text files, such as images, sound, movies and programs. In general, anything (except a url) that Pan has to use an outside program to display would be considered a binary. If you're limiting yourself (as I do) to text-only groups and Pan is reporting incomplete messages, there's either a problem at your news server, or in your connection. Unless you're having other connection difficulties, i'd talk to whatever tech support you can get from your news service.
