means the data is encrypted when it was added to the archive with a specific password
if you dont know the password, then the only other way is to use a zip/rar password cracker which WILL take a long time to find the password, as it will use a brute-force cracking method
If you dont know the password, and the other person wont supply it... kinda limited options really

The password was already set.
I think it will take to long to crack those files as there is at least 20 of them ..............shoot
