    That means the archive did not download completly. If the archive was packed with a recovery record (few are anymore ), sometimes it can be repaired using the repair function. Open winrar and browse to the folder with the archive, highlight it and select the repair tab. It will attempt to repair it and let you know if it was succesful or not.

    It means you don't have all the data needed for unpacking the archive, and that the archive is broken. It cannot be resolved by any utility, simply because it would be equivalent to guessing what data the archive contains. And if you could guess what data should be in an archive, you wouldn't need to download anything at all, would you?

    If it's a recent scene release, then chances are you can grab some par files from the newsgroups to reconstruct the missing files.
