As much as I hate to admit it I think this is a problem with the version of Netscape that I'm using to DL the file with. When I use IE it works fine. Sad but true.
I think Netscape's trouble with the file begins because it sees it as "File MIME Type: text/plain". So if you click on the link, it just display's the gobbly-gook characters in the browser rather than, for instance, prompting for a "save as". It probably messes with the line endings when you save it to a file.
Yeah, I noticed it did that as well. The trick is to use the "Save Link As" option. Presumably, there's a way to indicate the binaryness of the file but I'm not sufficiently up on my Web lore to fix that.
I'll see what can be done about that.
