Guest Gary S. Terhune Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Re: Hypothetical Re: Hypothetical WinZip v. 11 (and probably earlier) can split Zip files, too. Just search for "split files" in Help. In short, you make a ZIP file from your file, then split it into pieces to email. -- Gary S.

Guest rod Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Re: Hypothetical Re: Hypothetical Thank you all gentlemen! I am a little relieved, but havn't tried any as yet. I have RAR so will go that route. Seems I have been a bit of a donkey, I was in the middle of a move to a new computer and was minus a burner, so I threw the data on a cheap thumb drive, and mailed it to Thailand. It took 8 days, then my colleague could not open it. We either ballsed up the password, or the data got zapped by the anti terrorism scanners. Is that plausible? Anyhows, thanks a bunch.
