Could you please open a terminal and type:

Quote

file /path/to/your/file/filename

(e.g. file /home/mercylotus/.aMule/Incoming/file.rar)

The output should be something like

Quote

file.rar: RAR archive data, v1d, os: Win32

If it isn't you've maybe downloaded a fake file, i.e. someone gave any file the name 'file.rar' even if it is something completely different.
