Problem with rar files

My first impressions of fc are very positive and I was thinking of changing from explorer2 lite.

But can anyone tell me why my fc crashes (under XP) when I left or right click on rar files downloaded from Rapidshare.

I've tried making up various rar files myself with winrar and fc has no problems with them.

I've put the setting for archive file to ctrl+enter but it doesn't make any difference.

Thanks

Maybe the downloaded rar files require a password.

Is FC capable of handling archive files that need passwords?

I've never tested that, just a passing thought.

Is this a bug - I'm a bit dumb to be a bug-spotter.

If I have a multi-part rar with a password and only the first file is in a directory, it seems fc crashes when the mouse is placed over the file (or the file is selected).

It's my only complaint about freecommander.
