(assuming Windows here) Right click the link to the download file and select "save as." Likely problem is that your browser doesn't understand what a .rar file is (I know mine doesn't) and will try and display the file contents in the window. This appears as just a bunch of random characters. Once you've saved the .rar file to your computer you can then open the archive with the RAR application of your choice. Frequently recommended is WinRAR, personally I like Zip Genius.

There seems to be a glitch on the page.

Do this - right click and choose save as.

It will change the filename to .html. Rename to .rar.

This should now work. I've just tried it myself!

D'oh, that's right. If you change the "save as type" from HTML doc to all files you can then set the .rar extension. Otherwise Windows will force .html on the end. Wonderful little helpers they built in, no?
