I just studied a PKWARE conversation on comp.compression (copied from
CompuServe) which claims external cache problems with some 386/486
configurations. PKWARE claims it is the cause of their CRC errors. 

If this is true what is the safest way to get rid of this problem in 
my own software. In other words.

- how can I force a cahce update
- how can I disable the cache

Anyone having more info on this subject?
