    Hi

    I have recently bought Photoshop Elements 5 and a Panasonic FZ8. I need to add on the Camera RAW 4.1 update plug-in to access my RAW files. I have been to the Adobe site and downloaded the file but nothing seems to have changed. Do I need to purchase WinZip to unzip the plug-in or is there a safe, free software? Once unzipped, will it automatically work so that I can open the RAW files taken with my Panasonic or do I then need to do something else?

    I'd be grateful for any help - I want to see my holiday pics!

    Thanks.

    ... what format is it zipped in? Both WinRAR and IZArc are great free file compression programs. I recommend either one of them.
