I had previously reported a broken link for part 7 of CD2 of the first
Broken Sword game.

Zobraks was nice enough to help me out by uploading a new copy of
part 7. However it turns out zobraks no longer had his original set
of RAR files so he made a new ISO and created a new set of RAR files
more or less as before and uploaded the missing part.

It might have worked but unfortunately there were some differences
between the original set of RAR files and the new set so when I tried
to unRAR CD2 with the new copy of part 7 I got the following message.

! CRC failed in Broken Sword CD2.iso. The file is corrupt

So now I'm wondering if any of the 30 or so people who downloaded this
game previously, still have the original RAR files?? If anyone does,
would someone be so good as to upload part 7 of CD2 somewhere.

Not only would I be able to finally get the missing part but it would
also help out zobraks by allowing him to download it and restore the
original version of part 7 to his 4shared account, sparing him the
trouble of uploading a new copy of the entire CD. The copy of CD2
part 7 that is there now doesn't work with the rest of files.

Burning the original downloaded files to DVD is a really convenient
way to back up the games and is useful in situations like the one I
described. I have done that for most of the ISOs I downloaded.
I only wish I had done that for all the games from the very beginning.
