I'm trying to download a part of a .rar file that has been split into chunks .rar2's but trend-crapo on hotmail is refusing to allow the file through because it cannot identify it.
Is there a way I can get around this?
Cheers,

Can you not forward it to another non-hotmail email account ?
TRy renaming the extension to something boring like .jpg and see if it works.
It won't forward because trend is treating it like a virus and I can't change the file name as it won't allow me to do that either.
Isn't there a control cookie or something for trend to stop it working? or can I force hotmail into a classic mode where trend doesn't work?
afaik you can't disable the virus check but what do you mean by can't change the extension - is windows hiding it? If so click on tools, folder options, then view, then uncehck hide extensions for known file types.
Well it's all happening within Hotmail (web based)
ah-ha!
Right I have to get on xp with outlook express and download it that way... maybe.
What a pain in the arse.
Oh yeah, sorry didn't read properly and thought you were sending.
You will have to the guy to send it again another way.
*Solution*
The outlook/outlook express method works as it avoids trend all together!
Woop.
