    I've had the same problem using Netscape 3.03 Gold, *.SHK and *.BXY
quite often were corrupted after clicking on their links to download on 
my PC's hardrive. I originally thought it MUG! (I was beta testing it)
but a quick check with an MS-DOS compiled version of Nulib showed they
were getting corrupted well before that. My guess is it's transferring 
in ASCII mode. I've been having all sorts of problems with that version
of Netscape so I plan to try installing version 4.04 as soon as I have
PPP access back again. :)

    In the meantime, try using MS-Explorer. I'm not a fan of that 
browser but it seems to never have trouble with corrupting Apple II 
archives. Just right-click on archive links.
