...

You opened a ZIP file in Notepad... WHY?

 

[DrummingPanda]

???
I didnt mean to or anything!
I just do download then Open and all that crap comes up! What do I do?

 

[Mecheon]

Evidently you opened it in notepad

Which points to evidence supporting "Don't click 'Open' you silly goose, just save the file to your hard drive"

It could be very possible that you don't have winZip or winRAR? You can get those by searching online. Otherwise, if you have them already (which you should), then what Mecheon said will/should work.

Oh thats my problem... I dont have winZIP.....
Thats not good...
Do i need a disk for that or is there somewhere I can download it?
