I dont think I did any thing wrong but when I downloaded the zip file and tried to unzip it, it gave me this message:
Unable to extract files. Zip file may be corrupt or invalid password entred.

Ive tried different zip programs and they all give me an error message about the files.
What do I need to do any different? :confused:

Thanks
Walt

Clear your cache and try it again, turn off any AV or Firewall software you may havce.

I'm running into the same problem - IE6, XP sp2, firewall off, AV off.

Extraction wizard creates file vbadvanced_cmps_1_0_0, then I get a Confirm File Replace dialog - this folder already contains a file named vBadvanced CMPS. Would you like to replace this file. If I chose Yes I get an error stating that vBadvanced CMPS is a read-only, system, or hidden file and password protected. If I choose No then not all files are extracted, and those that are extracted are corrupt.

I can download and extract the vBadvanced CMPS portal from vbulletin.org, but are the files the same (says its version 1.0.0...)?

Thanks!

Try using WinZip (www.winzip.com) instead of Windows ZIP Folders. People are having problems with the Gallery ZIP file as well.
