Mark, could you provide an example that doesn't work? I've never 
encountered this problem, and I open a lot of compressed files 
(usally stacks) across Win and Mac platforms.

Are you using e-mail to transfer the files? I've come across cases of 
supposedly binary files being "converted" during e-mail transmission.
