ok so I downloaded the client and tried to open it only to get a corrupted message. I then realize it's probably because I have an older version of winzip...so I download the evaluation version of winzip 9.0 then try to open the zipped folder only to get a new message that says "Cannot open file: It does not appear to be a valid archive. If you downloaded this file, try downloading it again." So I deleted that client and downloaded the client again. Again I attempted to unzip it only to get the same aforementioned message. It looks like the file is nolonger an unzippable file, I'm thinking thats the problem but how do I fix it?

Try using Winace 8.0. If that doesn't work then something must be wrong O_o

As long as it's the lastest Winace it should be fine. Last stress test the same errors came up when extracting the file so hopefully, like before, Winace will work like a charm.

Hey Hag... check out this proggy:

http://www.repair-zip-files.com/

It is shareware, and only repairs zips less than 3MB if unregistered, but it wil still tell you if the archive is recoverable or not.

At least then you can see if the problem is fixable. If it is, i'm sure you could find a crack out there somewhere, but you didn't hear that from me :).

I'm having a problem as well! ; ;

I downloaded it fine and extracted it to C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft and clicked Installer.exe... and it says "No Installer Data can be found. If the problem persists, please contact Blizzard Technical Support."

Any ideas?? ; ;

Edit: Never mind, fixed ^_^ [Sqeeee]
