Hi John,

I'm a Mac user and after a bit of fiddling, managed to extract the file.  My download of the five parts appended an extension of .txt to parts 2-5.  Using Command+i on each of these, I removed the .txt part of the filenames in the "Names & Extension" box.  I then  used MacHacha to join the parts. Clicking on the resultant zip file produced the required avi.  There was still a minor problem opening this, but the VLC software I use to view avi files repaired it OK.

Hope this helps.
