    Whenever I download a .rar file, it contains another .rar file and other files such as .r00 etc. I get a message saying the file is corrupt when I extract the rar file. Any ideas? This has happened on other downloads.

    Run the .SFV file included and check if the archives are corrupt.

    Always extract the first part:
    *.part01.rar file (*.part01.rar, *.part02.rar are the next parts)
    or
    *.rar file (*.r00, *.r01 are the next parts)

    got it thank you. it seems that if you do not extract only the first part the next archive is not complete or something

    Moreor less. The key is to decompress the first part. That way Winrar or the app you use can automatically find the next parts and decompress them in order.
