extract a corrupt zip file partially?

I usually download some movies in rmvb format, and I like watching them while they are downloading. The only thing is that winrar would extract the file, and at the end it gives an error. I can watch the movie fine by pausing it at 96%, but it becomes a little difficult.

Does anyone know of some setting or some other extractor that would extract as much as possible of a zip file, and not delete it after giving the error.

    Here is a good link where you can download winrar for here: http://bit.ly/1BooiXa

    You can use winrar to decompress zip files and a bunch of other formats. Other good programs are 7zip and winzip but in my opinion winrar is the best one. Fuctionalities are pretty similar for all programs: basically you can decompress a file simply by right-clicking it and by choosing the destination folder.

    Winrar is available for free under a trial licence. The good thing is the trial period never ends so you can use it for free with no limitations.

    Winrar opens all formats like .zip, .rar, .7z, .iso, .tar, .jar etc. That's why I recommend it.
