Hi William

Does it ask you for a password when you try t o extract it? If so, then it's 
likely password protected and you need the password to extract it. Check the 
page you downloaded it from for details. Hell, I know I missed that once or 
twice and had to go back to the site for another look. Alternatively, if I 
knoew the link to the file in question I can work out if it's password 
protected in a flash
