It happens a lot to me... Also, why does everyone use a separate program to open .zips? windows does it perfectly (unless you have a different OS)

I use Windows to open zips, and 7 zip to open everything else. Too bad Windows doesn't open rars.

If the zip archive is damaged then your download was most likely cut off. As to the reasons why it might have been cut off, refer to this article: - option 3 Common Problems Downloading Files http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?nid=320

Get 7-zip, my friend. Or even better yet, uninstall Winrar, and open the zip with Windows.
