I only suggested this because it's the mistake I usually make. (Stupid
NT servers don't understand Little Igloo ftp's "auto" mode!)

I've just taken another peek. Testing with Acrobat Reader 4.0 I get:

andres.pdf	OK
morphic.final.pdf	OK
one-tour-sept.pdf	OK
back_20to_20the_20future.pdf	OK
formatted-btf-once-more.pdf	damaged
greenberg.pdf	OK
noel.pdf	OK
parsia.pdf	damaged
pierce-final.pdf	OK
porting-subfinal.pdf	damaged
steinmetz.pdf	OK
xp.pdf	OK

I can't get at the streaming audio stuff because the netjam server seems
to be
OS.

This is pretty wierd. If anyone can open them (I get errors on all but
back_20to_20the_20future.pdf, but Acrobat goes on to load them) I'd love
to know what they're opening them with. 

Cheers

John
