    Hi. Well if they are "clicking on RAR" then that would be a .rar archive, not zip. AMS has no built in support for .rar archives but you could probably find a freeware unrar tool on Google which you could launch from AMS, some even offer command line support for options like overwriting, etc... Hope that helps.

    Nice to see I'm consistent if nothing else.
