    Okay...I have downloaded a file from a torrent and somehow I (the moron) managed to save the file as a .lnk... and it's supposed to be an RAR...

    Now here is the problem. Windows XP doesn't allow you to see the .lnk extension even if you turn off the hide all extensions option.

    Any ideas of how to change the file extension back to a .rar?

    :rolleyes:

    I think what krazykrl is trying to say, is download the file again. :D Bazza
