I opene d the ZIP file with the WinXP builtin ZIP handler and it extracted the file as "Ǻ���ΰ�ᬽp�᪬ �ܪ� ���P�p.doc" (trash, it may look different when you read this mail, as my mail program is pretty braindead regarding encondings) Regards, David -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
