===================================================
I have read a bit about the way torrents work (not too much...it's too
complicated <g>) but its easily possible that I got some or all of the
data that you were missing before you had them and you must have been
seeding my download for a fair part of my total download... so don't
feel too bad about overseeding the 100% mark, it was probably ME ! :)
Battleplan on Usenet... I can't have ever seen it either or it would
have been a definite download for me. I just checked on BinSearch
under 'show all' - 3 hits total, and all of them look certain to be a
virus.
Reposting... I'm happy to split or let you have it all if you want,
but knowing our upload connection speeds... it might be a drag for
just one of us to take it on :)
I'm happy to go with whatever plan you come up with.
