I didn't notice a reply to this question. Might try Simply RAR and see if it's accessible.

Hi Mike Arrigo,

This makes me wonder. Do you know of a program for the mac that lets you create rar files?

For some reason, the built in archive utility does not support password protected zip files. Do a search for a program called the unarchiver. It will handle these kinds of files. After extracting the files, you can copy the book to a device, or open the xml file in your browser.

Hi all,

I just tried to grab a book from bookshare.org using webkit. The zip file downloaded just fine, but I can't seem to get a password prompt when I go to unzip the file. It just tells me that it failed to extract.

Also, when I used windows I would just open the .xml file from daisy books in IE and read them that way. Can I open them with webkit/safari and read them the same way?

Thanks in advance for any assistance in this matter.
