How very odd.
All my Bryce downloads, including the application, content that came with it, and all my purchased content got corrupted or damaged. All the file sizes were 64k. Silly me had been backing up to external hard drives, so I backed up the corrupted files. DAZ reset my downloads and I was able to get them back, though it took two days to download everything on my slow DSL line. I immediately burned the downloads to DVD. I just wonder why this happened and why it only happened to the Bryce downloads.

That is very odd indeed and I'm sorry to hear that. I could not presume to tell you what may have happened. Hopefully you have done a total scan for virus and malware.

I have done a full malware and virus scan, found nothing. I am not sure how the files got corrupted, but only very grateful that I could re-download them. They are now safely burned to DVD. I just need to be very careful with re-writeable media. With my Poser downloads as well, there is so much. It is tempting to just back up the whole downloads folder structure to external hard drive. I was backing up my mistakes.
