Of course, you could always try WinRAR

Ahh...if you don't mind extracting it in Windows, try downloading WinRAR and use it to open the file. It's a good all-around zip/tar extracting tool.


RAR rocks.

       Object oriented style (method):

SYNOPSIS
public bool RarArchive::isSolid (void ) DESCRIPTION
Procedural style: bool rar_solid_is (RarArchive $rarfile) Check whether the RAR archive is solid. Individual file extraction is slower on solid archives. PARAMETERS
o $rarfile - A RarArchive object, opened with rar_open(3). RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE if the archive is solid, FALSE otherwise. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Object oriented style <?php $arch1 = RarArchive::open("store_method.rar"); $arch2 = RarArchive::open("solid.rar"); echo "$arch1: " . ($arch1->isSolid()?'yes':'no') ." "; echo "$arch2: " . ($arch2->isSolid()?'yes':'no') . " "; ?> The above example will output something similar to: RAR Archive "C:php_rar runk estsstore_method.rar": no RAR Archive "C:php_rar runk estssolid.rar": yes Example #2 Procedural style <?php $arch1 = rar_open("store_method.rar"); $arch2 = rar_open("solid.rar"); echo "$arch1: " . (rar_solid_is($arch1)?'yes':'no') ." "; echo "$arch2: " . (rar_solid_is($arch2)?'yes':'no') . " "; ?> PHP Documentation Group RAR_SOLID_IS(3)
