Thanks for your offer Levi. I have a local Linux supplier but this time I thought I would experiment with downloading. I had been inpired to do this on some thread where I was discussing the virtues of Jigdo. I believe rightly or wrongly that rsync has the capability of sorting out which parts of a file are corrupt and then downloading only the necessary corrections. That is what I hope to try next. Won't be able to try anything for the next 3 weeks though because I am off into the bush for that time. Regards Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
