Since I last updated my POIs, at the same time that I update my speed camera database I moved from XP to Vista. This morning when I tried to run the newest downloaded POI zip files (using ZipGenius, as usual) they gave an "Invalid archive file" error. Does anyone know of any conflict or other possible reason?

Did you try the Show Link option on the Download Page?

Also be aware that there is a problem if there are too many sub-categories in a group that is being combined.

Thank you. Using the 'show link' seems to have solved the problem. Why was there suddenly a problem? I only download one file at a time. The only differnce at my end is the new OS.

It would take more brains than I have to work that one out. Laughing

Just a thought for the team...
Is there anyone for whom the normal method works, but "Show link" doesn't?

If not, wouldn't it be easier if the code was adjusted so when you click "Go" or whatever, it ALWAYS uses the "show link" method?
