This letter is to anybody that know how to view ".vt.z" file. I've undecode the file using unshar command but I can't view it using the zcat command. Please help me, especially to the sender of the "vt.z" file. Thanks for your concern. Faeiz Hasan Abrar <fh0...@wumpus.uow.edu.au>

Your zcat must understand gzip'ed files. ls should give something like
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Dec 25 19:29 /usr/bin/zcat -> /bin/gzip

Got any suggestions for those of us wothout shell access? I can view .vt
files by TYPE command on my pc...most of the time, but there is NO way
for me to use Gzip here...I would love if someone could put these in
Uuencoded pkzip format.
