In http://community.logos.com/forums/t/72215.aspx I released the first volume of this work.  But that was only books 1-3 of Against Heresies.  This continuation includes Books 4 and 5 of Irenaeus' work - finishing it up.  

Source is http://archive.org/details/treatiseofiren02iren is the source for my PB.

Again, I repeat the warnings about Hitchcock's notes.  They were written before the Nag Hammadi finds, and so are a bit dated.  In addition, he seems a bit over-eager to insert Irenaeus into our contexts (or at least British context almost a hundred years ago) instead of necessarily speaking of his.  And yet Irenaeus is one of the most important figures, and reading extended extracts of him is still valuable today.
