Trouble with CMBB demo

[SATCOM_Ranger]

I can't unpack the CMBB demo for Mac 9.x with StuffitExpander 6.0.1. It keeps saying the archive is corrupt.

It's 64.4 MB. Is that the correct size?

I've downloaded it several times.

Is there an alternate download site?

Do I need to update my Stuffit Expander?

Has anyone else seen this?

i downloaded it with no problems on my classic. I would suggest you try with different browsers (icab, opera or mozilla). Also use macupdate.com to search for the sw and download directly.

I also had no trouble (other than being on a 56k modem...) downloading and unpacking the Mac demo.

I don't think Stuffit 7.01 (which is the "latest") uses a different format, but you could give that a shot. It's a MUCH smaller download, at least

IME when Stuffit says it's corrupt, it dang well is.

Then that's a very good indication that your browser is not kosher with the ".bin" data stream, which is Macintosh binary.

I would much sooner switch downloading methods to a dedicated FTP program; *especially* one which can 'pick up where it left off', so if your connection breaks you're not hosed... I use 'Anarchie Pro 3.5', as sweet as it needs to be; there are others. Goto "MacOrchard.com" (I think?) for a list of shareware/otherware ftp and every web thing you could imagine for Mac...
