I have downloaded many arc files from UMICH.EDU using FTP.  I too had problems
with the 'Bad Header" messages until I started using the mainframe to De-arc 
the files and THEN downloading them via UniTerm!  Those of you who are having
these problems may want to try that.  I suspect that these files were originally
arced on a mainframe and that our ST version of arc isn't compatible.
