Sorry, I was too tired to write a normal bug report...

Code example:
##opening,reading archive...
$entry = rar_entry_get($rar_file, $entry->name);#all ok
$t=$entry->extract(false,'.');
      if(!$t)
         echo 'Not extracted';#does not output

And the file extracts not to the current working directory but to "documents and settings/UserName" where UserName is my currently used username.
