video_boy,
First, thank you very much for all you contributions. You really have downloaded some fantastic content here. Hitting the little "Thanks" button just isn't enough. Your compilations are fantastic as well.
I do have a question for you (and others on the boards, as well).
I'm curious about why posters .rar files when the file would not violate OCC's size limits. Why not just download the file directly. I ask about this because I picked up some viruses (on two different occasions) when downloading compressed files off of Rapidshare (via links provided on this site), even though Norton was set to actively scan all compressed files, regardless of their size. As an additional step, I manually scanned every one of these files I downloaded from Rapidshare before I extracted them. Yet, I still got the viruses. Norton didn't catch them until I did a full system scan. As a result, I've sworn off downloading all compressed files regardless of their source. Please understand that I am not implying that your files are embedded with viruses. In fact, I'm quite confident I have never picked up any viruses from compressed files I downloaded from OCC.
Maybe I'm looking for some guidance here as well. Are there others that have had similar problems? Are others hesitant to download compressed files?
I'm bringing this up here in your thread because there are some damn promising .rar files that I have chosen not to download, but I sure would like to. HQ023 looks incredible!!
