Paul,

I thought that it was probably a downloading problem but figured I'd try it
out.  So I downloaded the latest R260-ICCs zip file.  There are a lot of
ICC files and most of them are OK.  But 10 of them are corrupted.  Mike looked
into some and suggested that some of the 00's where changed into spaces (20s).
This does appear to be the case.   This is the list of bad ones:

260-Epson-PremierArt-Scrapbook205.icc
260-EpsonPremiumLuster.icc
260-EpsonVelvetFineArt.icc
260-Hahnemuhle-PhotoRag.icc
260-HawkMtnPeregrine.icc
260-Innova-SmoothHiWhite.icc
260-Kirkland-Glossy.icc
260-PremierArt-Smooth-HP-270.icc
260-PremierArtSmooth-HP-205.icc
260-UPPM-EEM.icc

There are several with very similar name (with or without dashes).
Paul, could you check some of these are see if they are OK on your
master machine?
