Why is it zipped in such a cruel way? Filzip also does not appear to work correctly in first try. It only unzips a "WPKG Client 1.0 rc1" file without any file endings.

This page needs link to WSH (cscript) installer for Windows 98, NT, ME.

cannot extract zip files. Windows Xp shows empty zip, ZipGenius shows corrupt files, Download wth Vista also shows empty archives

Try FilZip. Or any UNIX unzip.

Why is it zipped in such a cruel way? Filzip also does not appear to work correctly in first try. It only unzips a "WPKG Client 1.0 rc1" file without any file endings. By renaming it to .zip and unzipping it again some files appear. But if WPKG is fo Windows it should be decompressable in a normal way ( Winzip also does not like the file). -> improves usability

All right, I'll recompress it with a different zip packer. BTW, what should I use to pack files? I used Total Commander to compress it, and I can unompress just fine either in Total Commander, or in FilZip. Are you sure the file you downloaded isn't corrupted? Try redownloading it.
