I'm fairly new but this might be helpful to you if you're dealing with zips. I was very confused as to how to extract them to the correct location, and very nervous about putting them in the "correct place". Most downloadable files have their own "Runtime" instructions which will see that the files are extracted to the correct place. So... 1) Create a "Temp" folder somewhere you can easily locate in your computer. 2) Run Winzip and extract the files to your "Temp" folder. 3) (Shut Winzip down) Double click on your "Temp" folder, and there should be a "Runtime" folder inside. 4) Right click the "Runtime" folder and select CUT. 5) Now, open your Explorer files (the one with all your drives) and select Program Files/CuriousLabs/Poser5. 6) You will see a couple of folders and a bunch of icons. Right Click anywhere on the EMPTY part of the screen and select PASTE. 7) You will get a message prompt. Select YES TO ALL. There. The files have now ALL been directed to the correct directories and folders for Poser5. It's that simple. If you open the "Temp" folder you've created and there is NO "Runtime" folder inside, then this will not work for you, but all of the downloads I've come accross so far have this "Runtime" folder, once extracted into a Temp directory. I hope that's helpful (and if it wasn't what you meant at all, sorry). Chloe
