sorry.. i don't use windows ;) *and happy about that :D *

Ofcourse, i can open .zip files, but that one must be a special one, maybe only for windows?

Hä? Why is that so? A zip file is a zip file and works with all browsers. I don't use IE and i have no problems to open a zip file before.

No way.... also with IE.

What that for a site it is, that i have some problems to download a file? Must I bought me a windows PC, that i can use the files from these side? *nono.. :D *

A download MUST work with all browsers and all operationsystems.

I'm still waiting ;)

I just checked your download from here (downloaded from your DL area). Its working fine here. Package is 80k and processed as a zip. Then again Im using IE but I would have expected that a DL of a ZIP type would respond the same no matter what OS you were using. Did you try renaming as a zip?

Yes Geek, i have renamed the file as .zip

And i have never problems to open a zip file on my Mac OS X before. I can't open any files from your side. I think, it's a better way, you use another programm for zip files.. that's not for windows users only ;)

Other people seams to have the same problem.

.. and.. sorry.. the IE for Mac is over 3 Years old. And Microsoft don't support a new version for mac. So i don't can open your files with the old IE :(

The zipping isnt done on windows, its done on the server at run time. PM me an email addy and ill email the package over and look into why the stream isnt recognized as a zip to the mac.
