There is a way to convert video to make it acceptable to the Replay
(maybe someone here has a link). It is complicated. You might find it
easier to create a DVD-RW and play that instead of going through the
Replay.
That's what I do when I get some video from the internet (DVD-R for
stuff to keep and DVD-RW for temporary stuff).

True... but my thinking was that i would just be easier to convert and |
move to the folder that DVarchive serves downloaded files from... I'm
going to play with this tonight... have a feeling Quicktime pro may be
the answer. |

A TXT attachment is often a sign that someone is trying to spread

A .txt extention is most often a sign of a TEXT file.
Consider that even today, more than half the users out there will open
anything, even plainly marked executables.

Just for the fun of it I went the 1st download step of download for a
file I knew contaimned a virus (The first step is where my Mail host
scans it. I have two more steps before my computer asks me what to do
with it.
Took me nearly five minutes to get to the point where I could tell the
mail host: No, don't bother sending it to my computer. send it to
digital <theological place of eternal punishment> instead.
(Acknowledging alarm screens)
I do get E-mails with Txt attachments that are genuine... However I tend
to open those attachments with a program that is a read only file reader |

That sounds true. MS should know that, so it makes their choice of
defaults ("hide file extensions" is ON in every known version of
Windows) even worse.
