It would help if you posted the file names, but I think what you are seein is something like this: ??????.RAR 12345.RAR abcdefg.RAR RAR is a file compression system like WINZIP. If you have WINRAR installed on your system you can right-click and select 'EXTRACT HERE' to decompress your files into the folder you are working in. If you don't have WINRAR installed you can go to the URL I've included here.

And if its files that are split into segments, they can have names such as: Blahblaha.RAR, Blahblaha.R00, Blahblaha.R01, etc, with the last file ALWAYS smaller than the rest. Just right-click on the .RAR file, and it will extract the rest as well.

Along with all the afore mentioned.... Winrar will open most file compression formats... .rar, .zip, .arj, etc. It is a very good tool to have in your arsenal.

There are 10 kinds of people: Those who know binary, and those who don't.

Well.....I have downloaded the rar. thingy for Mac . And ....in that folder was...the same thing...language from another planet...I'm even more confused.

I wonder if 'Blackdow' and 'exxe' are one and the same? If you d/loaded the 'rar. thingy' you probably missed the instructions on how to install it and how it all works. RTFM.
