Okay I give up!!! I have downloaded TCP4.LHA and TCP30B2.LHA from the Networking Lib but for some unknown reason (unknown to me at least) I keep getting a corrupt archive. I've never had a problem decompressing archives until now. I've had problems downloading files at high BPS rates (=>14.4 on my stock A2000, something to do with the serial port not supporting it or something) so I dropped down to 2400bps and downloaded a portion of one of them. I say a portion of one because I was not about to wait an hour only to find out the same thing had happened. I checked the partial file and noticed the same pattern so I GIVE UP. What now? I get the same errors decompressing or just listing the archives from three or four different programs. They work fine on other archives. Has anyone else had problems with these archives? Any ideas? I am using AutoPilot 1.80 on a stock A2000, v2.04 to download my files. TIA, Brian Morris CyberCruising from the Swamps of LA. <—(the State) with a snorkel and AutoPilot 1.80
