I don't know about any other Mac users, but I have had no success.   
The files appear to download successfully, but any attempt to unzip  
them produces error messages - file may be corrupted, etc.

Hi Steve,

I'll try and set up a torrent tonight if anyone is still having  
problems. However, it seems that all you need to do is to concatenate  
all five files together in order to create a single bog-standard, zip  
file. If you're running Linux (and maybe OS X?), this can be done very  
simply with the cat command, but in Windows, do the following:

1. From an Explorer window, create a new file called Autobahn.txt in  
the same directory as the five downloaded files.
2. Double-click on Autobahn.txt and paste the following line into it:

copy /b Travels*.zip.??? Autobahn.zip

3. Save and close Autobahn.txt.
4. Rename Autobahn.txt to Autobahn.bat. If you get a warning, confirm  
that you wish to proceed.
5. Double-click on Autobahn.bat. A DOS window should fire up and start  
processing.
6. When the window closes, you should have a new file called  
Autobahn.zip, which you should be able to open with Winzip, 7-Zip or  
any similar program.

Hope this works,

Eddie.
