The files are small enough to fit on a floppy without being zipped.

Save all the *.sah files and you'll be OK

c:\program files\seti@home\*.sah

Thank you Jan and Mike!  About what I figured but I wanted to be sure as
I
did not want to loose any data.

What the hey!  I will ZIP the whole thing.

Now if I can just figure out where to get a Seti X-Face for my Xnews...
;)


It's been my experience that a .rar or even an .ace will work better
than a .zip. The .zip did something funky to the files when they were
extracted.

 A .rar has worked best for me.
