Hi everybody

Even though my netscape had decompressed the file, and (as you guessed) left
ghe .gz suffix, the decompressed file could not run (file wrote:
ethereal-0.8.12-DU40.gz:        COFF format alpha unknown binary type
executable or object module not stripped - version 11.1-3331). I then
downloaded it with Microsoft Internet Explorer. It didn't decompress, and
after a manual decompress with gunzip I now have a executable which can run.
(file now writes: ethereal-0.8.12-DU40:   COFF format alpha dynamically
linked, demand paged executable or object module not stripped - version
3.11-10).

Thank you for your help.

Regards

Anders Schroll Andersen
