Ok, I know that they want Guild Wars to be dial-up friendly, but some of us don't want to wait five days for our computers to decompress what it took all of 30 seconds to download.
So basically, just give the option to download the files without compression, through a nice GW-style attempt at Bittorrent. That way people could help each other, and we wouldn't have to watch GW decompress all through our lunch break when we were going to be playing. If anyone wants to complain that Bittorrent is evil, try thinking about what it was originally designed for. Sharing stuff you made. Not their fault it's so good for sharing illegal stuff. But anyway, Some people have issues decompressing things, but would love to watch it just download the whole .5GB needed for the 9/14 update. (Thanks for that go to Nightfall)

There is a command line you add on your GW.EXE to decompress all the files at once.

I dont remember exactely whitch one now...but it will come to mee sooner or latter and i will post here for you if anyone else don´t comes by faster

Yea, but decompressing all at once will still make me wait, downloading them uncompressed won't.
