A single file download decodes correctly. A single multipart does not.

It's the larger files that have a problem. On closer inspection of the 
article cache the header pane shows 001/303 but when I look into the 
article cache there are only 302 files for that particular multi part.

None of the files are empty and all files contain legal data.

If I close pan and restart pan try to save again and watch the
status bar there's no saving activity at all.

I think I've got something to sink some teeth into.

I've sent you a link off-list to get to the article cache folder with
the parts in it.
