JC, Re: I expect that Andy Wonisch will soon start using WinRAR a lot, too. <g>

LOL, yeah, I am already saving money for my new P4 to decode all that files faster. <g>

BTW, do you know the file sharing software eDonkey? (http://www.edonkey2000.com) It's also a very good software tool for finding and downloading TV episodes and it uses a very sophisticated method for doing so (basically it can start the download anywhere in the file and uses as much as 100 file streams at once). Newspro is still faster, especially if you have DSL or cable, but eDonkey is better suited for older files which usually scroll out of the newsgroups after a week or so. eDonkey is also available for Linux, MacOS and FreeBSD (soon).

JC,

No, wait. WinZip sucks. It's WinRAR that I use all the time.

That's a relief. I had some doubts for a second about your geek credentials. <g>

Joe
