dear gamers.
i realise that some games are have to

be unzipped, well my knowledge doesn't stretch so far that i know how, so

can someone please tell me how you download a game and then unzip the files

afterwards?

directory.

no, he

means .zip files. not .exe files. ok, here's what you do.
get winzip.

install it. then you can click (press down arrow and press spacebar) on use

evaluation version (you may need to press down arrow more than once)
or,

you can get zip sentral. type zip sentral (or zip central, i'm not sure

howw sentral's spelt) in google. zip sentral's free, and it is like an

installer. it's like an installer for .zip files. and, it's free. winzip

is not free, but zip sentral is. and i dont use it. i think i should try

it.

Or use the amazing shareware application called TotalCommander. It

should be fully accessible, has lots of (un)compression options, build in

FTP tool, multi-rename tool, file manager, image previewer and more. And

very small (only a couple of Mb's)... I've been using it for as long as

I've been using Windows and never used Windows Explorer to browse my

computer. Find it at http://www.ghisler.com
