RAR files are like ZIP files! Compressed data.
U need WinRar to extract the files.

yo robstar,

alright i got the winrar thing but i ran into a little bit of trouble ie i get this message...

"you need to have the following volume to continue extraction...insert a disk that has this volume to continue extraction"

do you know what that means and what i have to do to make the stupid thing work...

Hmm...Seems like u are missing a file or two.

when u compress a game or a movie u split em in to maybe 20-40 rar files.
so to be able to extract the file u need to have all rar files.
It doesn't work if u miss on rar file. :/
