RonW, the first method did not work, it does not ask me for a password but it exits silently instead. I couldn't find whether pp "extractor" code can be user-specific and couldn't see where in PAR modules the extractor code is. Any pointers on that welcome.
For the second method you suggested, it should work but I am in Linux and still looking for 7z's "extractor.exe" linux-equivalent. But it looks like it is going to fly... alternatively, following your model, I can always make a self-extracting archive linux-style, I am the only one needing to run this, as I do not trust this code with hosting companies. But if a hosting company has a wizard who could sneak onto the temp extracted PAR files, then let it be, it's not the end of the world.
thanks,bliako

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
