Interestingly enough, I pulled out Agent 6, too, and downloaded from
this group and all RAR's went into the designated folder w/o all the
individual sub-folder nonsense. All the settings in the folder specs
were the same, so it continues to beat me. I guess that in downloading
the Time Team series, I'll NZB it into version 6 and save myself a lot
of grief.
Haven't had this issue show up with any other uploads in other groups
so far, so not quite sure what it is with these particular sets by
Polygon and Agent 8, but thanks for suggesting 6. It works in this
case. Maybe worth getting an email to Forte and see what they say
about it. I'm certainly not the only one running into this issue.
