First things first ?
You are "top posting", crafter. Did none of those links not mention why not to
do such a thing? Does not the helps posted mention the problem also?

yENC is just one function of posting a file, it is not the whole deal.
The tool "yEnc32" is very handy yet should never be used to build
posts with.
Much of the guides in the helps posted as tutorials leave out all
the "why and the why not" because there is no need to know.
You start the car and you drive it, by the guidelines, you will do
very little damage to your car or ours.
Pick up the keys and say to yourself "um, I wonder where this
goes, let me try this" and *all* of us run away and hide while
*you* commit hari-kari.. get it?
In short, for a few hours reading of the work made by posters
>>>who know what to do<< you will save yourself and group many
hours with a headache.
You are very welcome to what help can be provided :)
