    Tomi,

    Copied one large DVD image from one to drive to another a couple of times,
    no problems whatsoever. Compared the file each time, everything looks good.

    As for the email, it's not my ISP gateway but mine personally. By blocking
    the entire Telefonica IP pool you are denying access to a huge userbase, as
    Telefonica is, in the end, the ISP for almost everyone here. But well, it's
    your decision :-)
