[Coco] RapidShare alternative!!

[Tim Fadden]

That sucks! :-) 

I tested my original files which worked just fine. I downloaded  the 5 
Feb. 83 issues, and sure enough I had crc corruption in the same three 
files. So, I would take that to mean the corruption happened  in the 
upload process. Seems strange that no error correction would be taking 
place. ????  I guess this will not be such a good alternative after all. 
:-( I have been transferring files on the  web since 1982, and have not 
really ever came across this much file corruption. I really don't want 
to download and test every single file I put up there to see if it got 
corrupted or not. What if I had purchased the premium package, and 
uploaded a 2gig file, and it go corrupted! No Thanks,

I will delete, and re-upload the files in question, and let you know 
when it is done.  Probably an hour or two. Guess I will find out about 
the rest later.  :-)
