In all seriousness, when was the last time you experienced corruption in a compressed document? In 20+ years in IT I've never seen it happen once. The closest I've come to it was a version of gzip a few years ago on Solaris that refused to unzip files > some size (2g I think). Had something to do with using signed versus unsigned numbers in the header definition. There was no real corruption and you could copy the file to any other OS to unzip it. Or you could patch the Solaris version. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
