You don't have to be a member of bookshare in order for this to work, unless there is something wrong with the utility. I have a theory about this, but will do some experimenting before I post about it. Is it true then that a BN in the UK doesn't come with the unpack tool?

Now if the rest of the world could join book share then we would all have a solution. As it is this is only applicable to the US. Or anywhere where you can access it.

It's the bookshare utility. When you download a zipped file, just change the zip extension to bks. You do that from the File Manager Menu, by hitting R, to rename the file. Then, open it as you would a Bookshare book. When it asks for a password, just hit Enter. A note of caution: it doesn't work with every zipped file, but it works a good bit of the time. Until such time as we get a variant of WinZip, it's okay. God bless.
