mmm... that downloads but the archive just throws up an error when attempting to open---"either in unknown format or damaged", once again in both IE and Chrome.

Still, it's progress at least :o
I've just downloaded the file and got this same error.
Then I noticed that jzip was trying to open it.
When I used 7zip it all worked fine.

Shame all installs aren't as easy as this, so many thanks VP.

I had problems too until I updated my version of 7zip, then it unzipped with no problem.

Hi all,
thanks go to Ken Balfour for the hint on updating 7ZIP installation. I googled 7zip and found a win10 version 7z1701_2765689605.exe. But found that trying to run the .exe from within the 7zip archive window did'nt work got the message require admin rights. Solved by copying the exe to a folder on the desk top, and then running the exe from there.

Finally managed to get the download - fourth time lucky -first three times just an empty folder! It looks as if 7zip was the answer. Wierd!!!

Downloaded with Chrome no probs Gary? And opened it with WinRar.

Thanks for all the reports, gentlemen.

Having failed repeatedly with my trusty 7_Zip, using both Firefox & Chrome, I updated to the 28th January 64-bit version of 7_Zip and that fixed the problem...

Kind regards,
