>Description:
After downloading [ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/8.2/FreeBSD-8.2-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso.xz], I am unable to open the image with WinRAR or burn the installation DVD with Nero9.  This is contrary to the 8.1 release which works fine with these two applications.  Please post a repaired image and/or advise which Windows applications can be used to make the DVD.
>How-To-Repeat:
Download with Windows Internet Explorer.  Try to make the DVD on a Windows XP machine with WinRAR and/or Nero9.
>Fix:
Repair corrupt image and repost.
