I have no problem uncompressing simplemenu-5.x-5.0.tar.gz (command line and BOMarchiver on mac os both ok).

Dear Scor,

thank you for your reply.
I have download that file again and it doesn't work on PC.
I am using WinRAR ro uncompress the file on Windows XP professional version.
I can easily uncompress other modules' files but noe this one for some reason.
When trying to uncompress. I get the following message in WinRAR:

C:\Documents and Settings\CompaqOwner\Desktop\simplemenu-5.x-5.0.tar.gz: The archive is corrupt!

I'm not sure why this would be corrupt, I have no control over that. Filing this as infrastructure issue, maybe those fine folks know!

Are you using IE and perhaps Winzip? This combo is known to cause problems with tar.gz files.

Please try the "right click and save as" technique to get the file and/or use a different browser to download the file.

you could also try with http://www.7-zip.org/, it's free alternative to many archivers.
