are you on @home too? I see you're in Hamilton, not to far from shithole London. Anyways, what are the ones with Romz called? I have the mame one but it's just discussion.

I think what you have to do rejoin them. On Outlook express you simply select the desired group of files you want to rejoin, right click, and then select 'decode and rejoin' just make sure you only have the posts with the attachments selected, or else it'll end up corrupted. Just save yourself the trouble and head over to http://www.emuchina.net/roms.htm, it's fairly simple to navigate, just look at the bottum of the screen to see where the links will take you, assuming you can't read Chinese.
