Yep. That's right, masterd2u2. What George is trying to say (if my
translation is correct) is that even if you had the correct "dbcs enabled op
sys" you'd only be converting one set of funny looking symbols in the shares
into ANOTHER set of funny looking symbols in the shares. It's just not worth
the bother. Solution? Stick to files that you can read, then you'll know
what they have to share. Or just say "fuck it" and download a shitload of
unknown files. You never know - there could be some decent porn in it.
