1.8.3 incorrectly requests password for RAR

Version 1.8.3

When decompressing a .RAR file that contains Authenticity Information, BetterZip asks for a password even though no password is set on the file.

I license WinRAR and can create a .RAR file in Windows that has authenticity applied but no password. If I try to open it on my Mac, BetterZip asks for a password. If I do not apply authenticity, BetterZip will decompress the file.

The only work around so far is to reopen the file on Windows.
