Broken multi-part files

Mediafire has disabled most (soon to be all?) multi-part files and this is affecting the most recent Kawaii International episode. Clicking on the "broken" icon in the manager interface, it says:

Sharing of “coolvideo.rar” has been limited due to being a split, encrypted, or corrupted archive file. Upgrade now to get unlimited sharing of all types of archive and encrypted files, including files over 200MB.

Yes it says "coolvideo.rar" for every file :-P

I'll look into some solutions tonight or tomorrow.

Which brings me to the point that the current use of Mediafire (like any other file host) isn't guaranteed to last, so please don't assume files will stay around.

I'm pretty sure some of you have archived lots of videos, so please consider resharing your favorites somewhere, in particular d-addicts. Someone PM'd me on d-addicts a couple weeks ago and didn't realize this site existed. I don't have the space to archive most things so I generally can't satisfy requests to repost episodes.

The kabocha squashes I got from the store last week were tasteless :-(
When they are good, they don't need sugar when roasted and they have a really nice nutty taste.

I do have a bunch of Futsu recently harvested from the garden, so my fingers are crossed!
