I can't seem to open Quotes 4.5! I keep getting the message "Error reading header after processing 0 entries" when I open it with WinZip. Not sure what that's all about. Can you help? Thanks!

This is an Internet Explorer bug and happens with each and every file on Drupal.org (not just quotes.module). The files should end with ".tar.gz", but IE seems intent on changing that to ".tar.tar" or ".tar.gz.tar" (it seems to vary depending on what version you're using and the associated software for dealing with tarballs).

Possible solutions include:
* save the file (rather then opening it), then rename it to have the proper extension (note that you'll need to turn off Explorer's "hide file extensions" feature to do this... or use a command prompt)
* get a browser that doesn't suck: Firefox and Opera are both quite good. If you use the command line at all, wget is an absolute necessity.

Good luck.
