What you need on your PC is a viewer program that can display this type of image. There are several available as shareware at ftp sites on the net. Two that I have used are 2SHOW and LVIEW. (When you download the images you might want to give them a name ending in .JPG so that you can keep track of the format - other sites use .GIF format for images.) PKUNZIP only works on files ending in .ZIP that have been created with PKZIP. --
