I have jsut started looking at the comp.binaries.ibm.pc newsgroup and have
saved a few programs, stuck the parts together, eedecoded, gotten good
checksums, etc.  When I uploaded the executeable to a pc using binary
xmodem it all seemed to work fine.  Of course the .zoo won't execute on the
pc so I tried renaming to .exe. Then I get some message such as file to big
to fit in memory.  Obviously I'm missing something important here.  Can
anyone give me a pointer or two!

Also, I've tried getting on the server via anonymous ftp and it always say
too many anonymous user's -- What's a good time to try?

Thanks in advance!

Chris
