I'm not sure if anyone has already asked about this, but I am having trouble viewing .rar files!! I am specifically referring to the post by "abus" for the jbvideo pantyhose fetish clips. There are 4 clips in total. Do I need to download all the files first before I can view them or do I need some software to view them?? Thanks....

Well, i don't remember those specific files, but anyway...to see Rar archives (they are compressed files that contain the video) you need a software capable to uncompress them. Winrar is the most common, but it's not free. A quick research on Google for some free software came up with this link:
http://www.dirfile.com/freeware/unrar.htm

That seems to list a couple of programmes that can do the job. I don't know them anyway as i have WinRar.

I was finally able to view those files!!! I did not understand what .rar files were actually. Now I understand that ALL the files compose to make a larger file. You need to have ALL the parts and then some software such as winrar or unrar will recompose the parts into the one large file so you can view the whole large file!!

Thanks....I learned something new :ooook:
