When I click on a zip file in Dolphin, it opens in Ark. It's possible to open the zip file in Dolphin by manually entering the zip:/ filename in to the location bar. How can I make Dolphin open them with the zip protocol by default?

Not sure if it will work for ZIP but in the Dolphin settings there is an option somewhere that makes Dolphin open archives as directories (i.e. just as any other folder). If you haven't already you can try that.

Thanks... I found the option ("Open archives as folder" under "Navigation"). It works for zip, tar.gz and tar.bz2 but not for rar (I can't remember if KDE 3.5 supported rar though).

Do you have the package 'unrar' installed? Not sure if it would make a difference or not.

Yes I do. I guess it's not supported.

Create file /usr/share/kde4/services/rar.protocol with content bellow
[Protocol]
exec=kio_krarc
protocol=rar
archiveMimetype=application/x-rar
input=filesystem
output=filesystem
listing=Name,Type,Size,Date,Access,Owner,Group,Link
reading=true
source=true
Icon=package-x-generic
Class=:local

Thanks I tried that out, but when clicking on a rar file in Dolphin I get this error message:
Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_krarc'
I couldn't find and packages for kio_rarc.
