Were you trying to open it in WinZip or in XP's built-in zip utility? If so, you will be unable to do it, as it is compressed in RAR format. You need WinRar, at http://www.rarlabs.com . If you were using WinRar, then the archive is likely corrupted.

I was using WinRar, and I was getting a couple of error Messages. I think it might have been something to do with his shrinking the size of the file. I don't know what else could have caused the error.

I tried d/l the .26 Version, and I was getting the same error Messages also. Am I the only one getting the errors, or is something going on with his compression?

Try reinstalling WinRar. I was able to get at least one of those Versions Last night and it loaded fine for me.

That might be my problem. I was using v3.20. I'm d/l the current Version now, and will install that on my computer at work and at home. Thanks.

It's not a problem with the file so it must be your Version. I am gonna start using self-extracting rar files soon so that should put an end to problems like this.

I just tried using the 3.30 Version of WinRar, and I was still getting those error Messages when I tried to uncompress the file. I'll wait until the next beta comes out to see if I get the error again.
