just extract the entire program's files using the rar program, place the files somewhere on your desktop, and run HEKPlus .exe.

When in me RAR program, this is what happens:

I get just a "Halo Editing Kit..." folder

Then when i double click it, halomaps-read... appears under it, then when i double click Halo Editing Kit, it comes to a bunch of things where HEKPlus.exe is one of the option, then when i double click it, it extracts itself and open ito like a blank page with some options, and when i try to do something it doesnt respond and then one or 2 HEK+ wi ndows comeup with tiny strips ofblack and i have to close it all, WTF???

Extract HEK+ before you use it. Extracting copies it out of the RAR and puts it into a different folder somewhere. Run that.
Also, are you using windows 7?

Right click the shortcut, click properties. Under the compatibility tab, check "disable desktop composition".

Yeah, Gamma knew what I was going at. For my 7, I also have to run in lower compatability (98).

Why? I don't just want to say, "you can," but you probably can.

Windows 7 right? Google how to make shourtcuts, maybe you'll find what's wrong.

Unless someone know how to set compatability without a shortcut...

Download reputable AV software, scan, then download anti-spyware, and scan again. Sometimes trojans and spyware do that to try and scare you into downloading MORE spyware and trojans.
