A corrupt file maybe? Try just opening it with Windows. OR try Winzip

When a program acts up, I generally just reinstall, and that usually fixes it. As far as other packagers, I'm partial to WinRar. I started using it when it first came out thinking "oh yeah, this'll show M$ hahahahah" even tho I use WinXP and haven't gone to any other OS because it really is pretty good. Anyway, WinRar handles I think all the package formats.
