Which file are you trying to uncompress?  I assume its trinux-070.tgz?
(which is about 4.5 megs, which may actually get changed to
trinux-070.tar by your browser).  Are you shift-clicking when you download
the file?  I was able to double click on Trinux-070 on NT4 with Winzip8
and it opened the .tar just fine??

In the future, please subscribe to the trinux-talk mailing list (a
web-based form is available on the FAQ page).  As the subscriber base
grows, there's a better chance questions will get answered there and
messages will be archived for everyone's benefit.

Thanks
