Just downloaded the game and for some reason I can't unzip/start the game. Probably me, but could use some help. Unzip error reads "archieve is either unknown format or damaged" Not sure why, but also keeps asking for me to buy WinRAR to download. Thanks!

Hi Popeye,
The first thing to do is try the download again in hopes that your download just failed in mid-stream. If it still doesn't work at that time, holler again and post what operating system you are using. I wouldn't worry much about the winrar message, it suggests someone installed winrar on your computer and winrar defaults to taking over the handling of zip files.

Thanks for your reply. I downloaded it again. This time it took a lot longer. Then it tried to unzip and said at the end "file corrupt." I'm running Windows Vista.
