Wierd files

[shadowshlankster]

Ok last night I was downloading something on azureus and when it finished it was in folders called cd1, cd2 etc. but what I can't figure out is that there are a whole bunch of these files in each folder. One of my friends told me about this but I am not sure how to assemble or do whatever you have to do to them to get them to work. Any help is appreciated.

Those are probably 15mb RAR files. Go to http://www.rarlabs.com/ and install WinRAR. If you open up any one of those 'segments' with WinRAR it should contain the application/game/etc. you were downloading which you can then extract to wherever.

I already have winrar and those arent .rar files they don't have any icon like if I clicked on them they will say to open with what, they are just files that I don't know how to use.

Are they Album Wrap or Zip files? Sometimes people forget to put extensions on their files. That might be the problem.

they're not necerraliy .rar files. Most likely .r01 or .01 or something. Look for an archive file you recognize and extract it, this will combine all the other files. Winzip doesn't support many archives so i reccomend any other zipper which does eg: izarc or zipzag.

Ok I just checked the files took me long enuf, any ways the file formats are as follows .01,.02 and so on to .55 for disc 1 and then there is a .svf file

Just use WinRAR to open the lowest file (.01). Then extract it to a folder and your warez will be there.

I've had similar problems! Got no clue how all the files are supposed to end up in a video/movie...and if it does in what format!

What I do now...is just avoid those files, and look for the same movie in avi. format!
