I'm looking to download every single comic of Archie that is available online. (torrent, ddl forum site, etc.) Which site(s) do you recommend specifically? There is a small Archie pack on Demonoid but that's far too small since I'm looking every last one of them, if at all possible.

Aren't there thousands upon thousands of these made? I doubt anyone's bothered to scan ALL of them.

Well, I'll settle for the most that I can find. :P Any thoughts?

Ok, I downloaded the five Archie torrent packs. But they are all .cbr and .cbz files which according to Google are comic book archive files. So, what is the best program (freeware or paid) to use to open and view the files?

Open source: http://comical.sourceforge.net/
Freeware: http://www.toggle.com/lv/group/view/kl39723/CDisplay.htm

You are using Windows right?

Well, I'm using Windows AND a Mac. (powerbook g4) So, Comical is the best software for Windows AND for macs also?

Comical is the same for both Mac and Windows, so it's probably best for you.

Only thing I hate is I haven't figured out a way to use the arrow keys on the keyboard to flick through pages.

There's a few Archie packs of TPB, and Demonoid has a some and a megapack (80+GB, 225 series, 3337 comics). Those should keep you occupied for a while.

That megapack is not all Archie though. I could be wrong but from what I've briefly seen, it looks like the files that are Archie in that huge list are the same files as the one through five Archie packs already available online... Most of those files are TMNT or Sonic or whatever else... :(
