Can you be more specific as to which file you are having the problem with?  I just tried the "Mongolian Wild Pony" and had no problem opening it during download or saving to file then unzipping.

It would also be helpful to know which program you're using to try to unzip the file. We always recommend using Winzip because the trial version is free and downloadable. A little more information will be most useful for us to try to assist you any way that we can.

Many Thanks! :wub:

Again I tried and with the Frenis Wolf it didn't work I did the exact same thing except when I clicked Open this is what happened:
-A folder showed in which there was a pic and another folder. So I opened the folder. and When I tried to poen the file it said that microsoft cannot find a correct program to porn the following file.
-I tried unzipig it with ther extraction program that my computer has but the result was the same.

This is for ZT2 then?  Moving to downloads support there.  You may want to check out some of the pinned topics in this section of the forum, there might be some helpful stuff there. :original:

It can be either that you do not have permission to download on your computer (check the permissions for the Owner) or could be that your ISP 'cuts off' before it can be totally downloaded. I would suggest re-downloading. Sometimes you have to do that several times to get it to work right. :original:

Sometimes the files are corrupt when they come down, like if the internet stops or is going really slow, and it can't handle it. For instance it just happened to me with the addax, but I kept trying and eventually it worked :original: sometimes it just takes a while.
