725509 2008-12-03 12:25:00 I have a folder that contains 59 .RAR files totalling 4.7GB. Clicked to unRAR using WinRAR and am seeing a window that informs me 'Elapsed time 03:06:19, ::-Remaining time 21:34:04. Completed = 22%
Is this usual?
I've never before unRARed anything of this magnitude.

725510 2008-12-03 12:45:00 Yeah, I know...the math doesn't add up:- 22% in 3 hrs leaves 78% to do in 21 hrs.

725511 2008-12-03 15:53:00 Never mind about this post, the complete folder was corrupt. Closer inspection revealed that it for three hours it had been locked into a sort of Phase locked do-loop and was repeatedly un-raring the same first three 48MB files and going no further.
It has been trashed.

725514 2008-12-04 00:30:00 Ha ah!!, Is it really. I best get up to date and in time then, now. Hell, no wonder I'm late for appointments:;are dates given in format 10:30:2008, for instance, meant to be taken as the 2008th month of the 30th day of the year 10?? ( or some other permutation thereof)

725515 2008-12-04 01:16:00 I am again d-D-loading the Torrent. This time it shows as being 2.7GB and is made up off 59, 46.9 MB .rar files.These figures do add up to it being 2,767.1MB. How the other folder managed to become a 4.7GB Mammoth I have no idea. ( in the folder that I trashed,the file size was 48MB: 59x48MB does not 4.7GB) .
Hopefully this time it totally unpacks in the blink of an eye. Aye aye.
Thanks guys.
