For downloading binary files, do not use any option or if you must use an option try XGET Thanks Clement On Mon, 18 Jan 1999, Krzysztof Rolnik wrote: > Few days ago I send request to www4mail@unganisha.idrc.ca > containing: > > http://otakuworld.com/cgi-bin/cgiftp.exe/kiss/index/x/kiss/pro\ > gram/PlayFKiss083b-beta-Installer.exe > > I get 10 files, but after use DOS command: > > copy /b file.001+file.002+...all other files...+file.010 PlayFKiss083b-beta-Installer.exe > > the result was an EXE file, that wasn't (!) a correct EXE file, > and I can't run it.
