Would be handy...

I can open the zip file with WinRAR...try it or the latest winzip version (WinZip 9.0 SR-1)

The install structures are totally different between cd and dvd versions.
You won't be able to do it.

Something puzzles me? In this thread http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=64351 'Twigfigure' wrote only yesterday I could if it was out in Australia yet...Which it isn't.
He was referring to 'Sims 2' This brings me to the puzzle "where did you get it from?" :confused:
