Glenn.......this happens at other sites.....and I haven't had any
luck with the "delete %20" move, either.....I don't remember where
I've run into it, but I just figured it was a site I could not d/l
from, and went to the external FTP, which worked fine.....
You remember when I first came on this list, back in November, and
was crying plaintively for the FTP external client...??? that was
why....so I do not know the reason/cure, but the immediate workaround
is to punt-out to the external FTP and do it that way.....
