   So far any version of PGP20 I have run across, by whatever transmission
   or encoding method, has contained mostly corrupted files. The only
   files not failing the CRC checks were PGP.EXE and the first of the
   documentation files.

   I'm suspicious - this looks like Someone is circulating a rather
   crudely hacked version of the program. Or am I being overly paranoid?

No, you are being just-about-right paranoid, but I'll bet if you get
PKUNZIP release 1.10 instead of whatever you've used to date, you'll
find it works better. I had the above problem with PKUNZIP 1.01.
