      But what happens if you are giving someone a graphical demonstration on how to unzip files, for instance?

        Now you're just being contrary SB (as if I only just noticed)

        If filetypes other than .zip are to be permitted I see no problem with mp3...

        Vaguely on topic - can .ra and/or .rm files be played without that d*mn spyware monstrosity RealPlayer?

          No-one has responded to -Jrabbit.... I'm with you there, trusty Historian. At least, if we're crzy, we're BOTH crazy.

          Can anyone tell us why in the "When we learn Democracy" thread in the Democratic Civ2 game forum it plays some weird patriotic sounding midi?

          Go on, try it. I am NOT crazy.

              Mark - when I followed the 'Democracy' link in the post above -
              1- I got the redirect screen
              2- I was not logged in when I finally got to the forum

              This can't be what you intended - can it?

                      You can rename the MP3 to wav. Windows Media player handles it fine but Music Match Jukebox and Real Audio don't know what to do with it.

                          For those of us NOT Canadian, who is Senator Hollings?

                                Whats Canadian have to do with it? They have a Parliment not a Senate.

                                He is the Senator from South Carolina. The one that is in the pocket of the RIAA.
