i've found a dll which could zip/unzip .gz files..

... hope that helps

Just tell the server you're not interested in encoded files ... either make a HTTP/1.0 (and not 1.1!) request, or send an Accept-Encoding: none header

I don't really have a way to test these solutions but I believe one of them will work.

wow... it works.... again!
you've saved my ass from tons of trouble... again!

thanks XD
