Ummm, then why wont it run after i download it? I have other EWF files that run ok,but it always seems they are zip files and I just run them from the extractor, in this case it says the file is corrupt or cant be recognised, try downloading it again.Which I've done countlessly.Is my computer seeing the file in the wrong format?

Umm if you're getting it from that link, it's a .exe.
It says it right on the page.

Sometimes you need to shut off the firewall to run some of those. I've had that problem and it was because I had CA internet security suite, and it really messed up how I could download stuff. I switched to Trend Micro's internet suite, and all of those problems vanished. I'm not sure if that's your problem or not, but that's a similar problem I had with that internet suite.
