Did you download a video?  

If so, is it broken up into a series of .rar files?

If yes, right click on any one of the .rar files and click "extract here."  It will put all the peices together into the complete video file.

The torrent is just the file that lets you download the movie, it is not the movie itself.

After downloading the movie with the torrent file, the torrent file is no longer needed. You only want what is left over, which is the movie.

Can you give us the extension of the file that you are trying to open, or at least describe it as well as you can?

I got a folder called sample and a bunch of files that need some program to open? so all those little things are parts of the show? I'll try that right click thing be back in a second... ok maybe a minute.

I right clicked on one of the the.unit.220.hdtv-lol.214  and there was no option to extract.  how do you download the movie itself?  Should i download it again?

Do you have WinRAR? If not, download WinRAR, install it, then right click the file and do the "extract here" thing.

What type of file is it?

ok WinRar worked. Thanks. This is awesome.  So from here on out is there a place to just download a whole video?  Or does it always come in chunks like that?

I'm an idiot when it comes to computers the one I typed a few posts above was the name of the file.

This one is good.

tha-industry.net
I copied the link directly into the video thread.
Its a forum style site, much like this one....

Scroll down to the bottom and search "The Unit".
Usually it will take you to Rapidshare or related site. If you dont buy a membership, you can only download one section every two hours.
MAKE SURE YOU CLICK SAVE NOT RUN!

I made this mistake and wasted 2 friggin days of downloading.
Get all sections, and double click the .rar file #1  and it should pop up in Winrar. Highlight The Unit folder, and extract files...
I think it will just grab the rest by itself, you dont have to put them all in winrar.
I'm just figuring this shit out myself...

ETA: And for muzik, this one is good, since you already have WinRar...
