Are you sure it's MB or KB instead? See WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! as I suspect it's actually a virus.

WinRAR is well known repairing .rar file. I think Lord is right, i have a hunch that you downloading a 762KB. but if it really 762Mb by looking at it propteries.

Then maybe the file is not completed downloading
