i've been downloading *.tgz or *.tar.gz files in win95 and then
transferring them to the linux partition ... i've installed many
*.tar.gz files successfully that way , but otherwise for *.tgz files ...
whenever i do a gunzip filename.gz , it'll give the error :invalid
compressed data ... the thing i noticed was that the files that were
supposed to be micq-0.4.0.tgz were changed by windows into
micq-0_4_0.tgz  .. i've tried renaming  that file from micq-0_4* into
micq-0.4* , but the same problem happens .. the thing i did was , just
download the files from linux .. anyone could tell me why does this
problem affects only *.tgz and not *.tar.gz ?!?
