    Are you sure they are not rar files

    THE TRUTH
    The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

    If the file was downloaded as an iso it should be on the drive as an iso but windows 7 might show all the files because it just sees it as an archived file and opens it so you can view it. Windows 7 likes to do things for you even if that's not what you want to do.
    I just checked the default file association in Windows 7 for .ISO ... Description = Disc Image File; Current Default = Windows Disc Image Burner.

    if I remember my course notes correctly - Win7 has a burn to disk feature built in, just right click the file and select burn option. Win7 will do the rest
    give it a go -it does work
    cheers
