xmodem problems

Hello,

I've been trying to download some archive files from the computer at school
to home using "xmodem -d <filename>" on unix at school and PROCOMM at home.
Small files transfer properly but as soon as the communications software
encounters a certain block number in bigger files it issues an error and quits:


11:24pm /u2/mnop/mpanek/simtel->cat xmodem.errs
xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of locate.arc properly
Terminated.
xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of cache.arc properly
Terminated.
xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of gmovie.arc properly
Terminated.
xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of frac.arc properly
Terminated.
xmodem: couldn't send sector 2a of boot.arc properly
Terminated.


Can someone tell me what might be the problem.  I haven't a clue.

Thanks,
Michael
