Have you tried extracting them all? (right click > extract). You need software like WinRAR installed for this to work.

Sounds like you don't have the proper codec for that file, assuming you did indeed extract it properly. WinRAR is pretty easy and to the point.. just double click or right click and chose how you want to extract it. Easiest way would be to "Extract here" (you could also make a folder and hit "extract to" and select that folder.. either way... after you do that you should see it extract and then you should have your file. After you do that.. since it doesn't work.. right click on it and go to "properties" and see what the extension is (AVI, wmv, XviD, mpeg etc. *you follow me?) come back and tell someone here what the file type is and they will help you find the proper codec to play the file. Chances are you can find it right here: http://www.free-codecs.com/ Hope that helps..

note* I assumed you were using windoze

Oh yeah, I also want to mention that those are not separate movie files, you should change the title of your thread.. You will see what I mean after you get it extracted properly
