I've been downloading some of the free stuff and I keep coming accross a file extension that my computer and I am unfamiliar with. "(file name).zip.ez" Is this a Mcintosh file extension?

just rename it to .zip only. Works fine

Thanks. Do you know what it is?

just a screwup is all:) It happens from time to time

Are you using Netscape? I have that problem a lot. Some versions of Netscape do not agree with the scripting here. I'm not sure why.

The filename ending in .ez is the script that's fetching the link to the real item from r'osity's database. Various browsers get confused and put the script name onto the downloaded file. Some browsers realize the mistake partway through the download and correct the filename, others do not. If you know it's a .zip file, just change the extension as noted above. If you're not sure what it is, Aladdin's Expander can usually take it as-is and correctly uncompress it whatever it is (unless it's an .exe) -Adam

Thanks again. I am using Netscape and the files opened without a hitch after renaming them. Just curious about the extension.
