				 How do I uncompress .7z files? 
 I've downloaded a couple of files recently that my winrar won't decompress.  They end in .7z.  What program do I have to download so that I can have access to these files? |

 WinRAR should be able to handle them. Which files did you download that it can't open? They might be broken files. |

				 Re: How do I uncompress .7z files? 
 It was the Longboat mod file on Spaceempires.net that I couldn't decompress.  Then there was a note last week that said don't download, he was having some kind of problem.  That must be why I couldn't get it to work.  But thanks for the info. |
