    WinRar files & errors...

    Hello.
    I tried to unpack a *.rar file that contains a folder with several files, using winrar3.30.
    I right click on the file and press, "extract here". The procedure starts, but an error message comes saying: “Invalid or Corrupt authenticity Information”
    The file gets extracted though, regardless the error message.

    I remember, when other error messages occurred, the extraction would stop.

    What does this message mean? Is the extracted file corrupt?
    The folder with the files seems to be ok.

    Winrar is a lot more tolerant than winzip, from what I've found.

    With a lot of errors it will carry on regardless.

    If everything works, then I tend not to worry about the error.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();
