Subject: Corrupted Downloads?

Hi!

I'm using my recently bought PB 190cs, with OS 8.1 and 40Mb RAM, no Virtual
Memory.
But found that Eudora 3 is a bit outdated. I need something that reads
e-mail formatted with HTML.
I d/l'ed v4.2.1 (68K ) from Eudora, but during expansion, StuffIt warned
about some damage.
Tried to use the installer, but says it needs more memory, zero K
available. It is damaged.
D/l'ed the same version from a site in France, same results.

Took a break, d/l'ed MacLynx 68K version, it has 68K and PPC versions. PPC
works great in my Wallstreet, 68K opens and then closes with a Type 1 error
in the 190cs.
D/l'ed ICQ v1.7.2b (68K), same type 1 error.
Other d/l's work fine. (Snak, AOL IM, Netscape 4.06, but NOT 4.0.8)
So, Does anybody know of a site where I can d/l Eudora 4 and/or MacLynx
that are known to be good?

Best regards.
Hugo Diaz

YOU ANSWERED:

You've got a bad version of StuffIt Expander. IIRC, there is a whole 
version of Expander that is broken on 68K macs, not just a random 
corruption. The symptom is files expand just fine on a PowerMac but wrong 
on 68K. When it happened to me I think I went a half step back (-.5) on 
the StuffIt Expander program and that fixed it. *$%#@ Aladdin!

MY REPLY:

Well, I checked that. I d/l'ed the same files with my PB Wallstreet and the same thing 
happened.
This is weird. Does Eudora put those corrupted files on purpose?
But MacLynx? And the 4.0.8 version of Netscape Navigator?

Once again: Somebody knows where can I get working files of Eudora 4 and/or MacLynx 
for the 68K?

TIA
