Cannot extract due to CRC Error in WinRar FIX

Cannot extract due to CRC Error in WinRar FIX
Noticed quite a few gripes about not being able 2 extract Klowns avi's.
Heres the workaround, for those who haven't figured it out yet.

To extract the file which is said to be 'corrupt' by winrar when the process completes do this:
1. Hit 'extract to' option, and chose destination.
2. Check the 'keep broken files' option under miscellaneous
3. Hit ok. Even though it still gives you the 'CRC file corrupted error', it wont delete the file as a result.

The file is labeled corrupt because some information about the file is lost during the downloading process. And even though u can retry the download, it may likely still be labeled corrupt. For those of you who use the VLC player, (media player that plays ANY music/video file) you can play the .avi while it is still compressed in winrar. Jus open the rar file with it, and it'll play the file flawlessly. (told u it plays EVERYTHING) Check out VLC player here if u have trouble playing files on any other media player. IE Windows Media Player. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
Heres a pic of what to check.

    Yesterday I extracted my rar files and saw an crc error at extracting. I didn't know what to do then. But luckily a friend called me up and recommended me - how to repair winrar files. It helped me very rapidly and free of charge as I bore in mind. Besides it helped my aunt and she thanked me a lot.
