Status: offline 		Hello has it been determined that your copy that you downloaded is even valid? Alas, you may require a totally new download. Did you use a decent download manager. I particularly like Getright (which explains why it is made available on the site here). Your inability to unzip may be a reflection of some element being missing, something that might have failed to download. I am mostly computer iliterate though, so keep that in mind hehe.
