	You do not need to re-download them all. As Eugene said, you can get the
compression utility and compress the tablebases you already have (you will have
to delete the uncompressed files yourself, if both are present crafty uses
uncompressed ones).
	Also, you do not need to download the five men tablebases. You can get the
tablebase generator and produce them yourself in your machine. I do not know how
long it takes, but if your connection is slow maybe less than the download time
