I'm not accusing the writter of anything here, but when I try to unstuff the downloaded file, It says 'Final Battle may be corrupted or may not be a valid archive'. This doesn't happen with anything else I download. Is this a virus? Should I unstuff it or bin it?

This is not a virus. The copy of Final Battle currently on Ambrosia's site is notorious for not working, but that particular type of not working isn't one that can result from a virus. I believe Lord of Lemmings/WickedDyno has a working copy of Final Battle hosted somewhere, although I don't know the URL offhand.

I had uploaded a newer version a while back... shrug If someone can get me the URL, I'll add it to the file's description.

Also, whenI tried to download it again, It asks for my Username, Password and IP Account, thats never happened before?
Final Battle 4.1 is available here: (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/andyg/ev/downloads.html")http://homepage.mac..../downloads.html(/url)
Also note this caveat from the author's homepage:
This version is still buggy, unfortunately, but the first few dozen missions work. I'm working on a new version.
