Multi file torrent question

GullWing · January 7th, 2009, 2:34 PM

Hi.
I downloaded the new Oz and James torrent with no problems

http://www.mininova.org/tor/2154281

but is has quite a few multiple files instead of one big .avi file.
I read someone's post who said you just have to unzip them, but when I click on one, Vista wants me to choose what program to use, and I'm unsure how to proceed.

Sorry to be such a computing idiot. images/smilies/sad.gif

What's the file's ending then? .RAR maybe?

You can safely open one of the files (like oz.and.james.drink.to.britain.s01e01.ws.pdtv.xvid-remax.r0) with winrar and unzip them in a folder of your choice.

The file type reads: .r01 .r02 etc.

Winrar is a program I can download to unzip them?

And completely off the topic, it was a good ep and I'm really waiting for the rest of the series images/smilies/wink.gif

You use WinRar to un-rar a file, not un-zip a rar file. images/smilies/tongue.gif
