On the second attempt and 3+ hours, success.
Should you desire, I can try sending the file to you via iChat or Skype. If interested in such, contact me at (pndrgnsvc<<at>>aol<<dot>>com). And please put Poser in the subject line. I don't know how well a transfer of this size will work, but perhaps it's worth a try.
Many thanks for your kind offer, Harv, but it's ryck who may need to take advantage of it. (Unless your upload speed approaches miraculous, though, won't it take an enormous amount of time to accomplish?
Edit: And ryck will still have to deal with his slow d/l speed, anyhow, I assume.)
I guess I got lucky... First try and a bit under two hours.
