KR> see my previous message,

Didnt help much.

Nope, really hasnt changed a damned thing on the question of your
proclamation that it cant have been the fault of your system. The
fundamental thing that YOU cant escape is that no one else has seen
that effect, Pauls system thinking the file is refused, when it wasnt,
and I just dont believe your system really was untouched for 12 months
prior to the 19-May and even if it was, that still leaves open some
possibilitys like a glitch in your drive subsystem causing your Bink
to refuse the TH1 or something as simple as a lack of free space.

And when those last two are absolutely classic examples of things
that can make a system work for months and then bite you, you just
plain CANT proclaim that it cant be your system.
