When downloading segmented files from a newsgroup, about 2/3 of the
segments download, then, when the "combine" action is initiated, the
remaining segments download. This is an aggravation and not a big
problem but it would be nice to find the cause. This seems to have
started occurring recently but not sure when.
Any ideas will be appreciated.

Before attempting the combine/decode you should ensure that all parts are
downloaded. I suspect your settings at present are to download headers
only.

Outlook Express is set to download headers only until a message is
selected. The problem is, when I sequentially select a number of
segments to download, only about 2/3 actually download and the other
1/3, with random spacing, are not downloaded. All segments have been
selected for download, e.g., all segments are highlighted and
blocked, but random segments are not downloaded as expected. I can
force the undownloaded segments to download by deselecting and
reselecting those segments or just initiate the Combine/Decode
action.
So what I am trying to find out is why all segments selected for
download are not all downloading as they once did?

After selecting them, have you tried using the F5 key to force a refresh
before beginning the combine/decode? It may take quite awhile to download
all the parts, particularly with some graphic binaries.

F5 just deselects all of the segments and reloads headers, so no
help. Thanks for the ideas Jim, if you can think of anything else,
it will be appreciated.

Try copying all the segments to a new local OE folder and if you can get
them all in there, then try the combine and decode.

It could be a size related thing. I don't really know exactly what you are
doing.

Once you highlight them to download them you can just right click on the
selection and choose copy to folder. Its not that many mouseclicks.

I understand, but why bother - clicking combine/decode downloads the
remaining segments and executes the combine. I was hoping that
someone else had seen this problem and could tie it to a security
patch or an interaction between OE and some other program. Thanks
again for the ideas!
