Hello megaframe,

I'm curious about your answer/comment. If I understand you correctly, It sounds like the problem was created on another system and then transferred to your system where the problem occurred for you. If that is correct then you have found a software bug in the utility that generates the archive.

That implies that you'll get this problem again, and you'll have to manually fix the corrupted files. That doesn't sound like a good fix, but your time is important and maybe it will be years before it happens again. If not try to change the utility on the offending computer.

Good Luck...Ed
