I don't like the way you shout everywhere in these forums by posting a lot of messages asking the same question. You will not have better chances of having a correct answer in that way. You just annoy every visitor who has to read all of your useless messages. As a consequence, I deleted all your posts except this one.

Before posting a message, you should select the best forum for it. Obviously, your question is general and not related specifically to one game, so you should have posted a single message in the "General Discussion forum".

Now the answer to your question: do not use WinZip (it cannot manage .rar archives). Go to http://www.rarlab.com, and download WinRAR (it is a shareware). Install it on your computer and launch it. In the File menu, choose "Open archive" and select the rar file you want to uncompress. Then click on "Extract To" to extract the files.

And in the future, please avoid multiple posts of I'll just delete them without answering at all.

Poor Jake!

People with little confidence are easily upset, aren't they?
But since Jake did this "overposting" for the first time and is maybe not experienced with the use of forums, you could have warned him of a little more politely, Christophe, don't you? (Even if Jake behaves like an angry little child).

I guess you guys are right. We shouldn't chase off Jake just because he may be new at this. After all, the way he types, he probably unstands exactly what the Holy Scroll means. Although, since he can't seem to show Christophe any respect, why give him a chance? Hopefully when school starts back up again, he will be too occupied by his forth grade studies that he wont have time to post on these forums anymore.
