When I download a file with japanese characters, such as .wav or their mother folders, instead of being in japanese, they become gibberish. I also use WinRAR, which may also be the problem.link text

Looks like an encoding problem where the Japanese file names aren't converted or shown as Unicode, but shown as ANSI instead.

Can you post a link to such a file to check how the server sends the file?

It looks that that ZIP file wasn't created properly and that the file names weren't saved as Unicode.
I can't read Japanese, so I don't know what those names might be.

I don't think that is quite the case, as its the official site for Kasane Teto (from a program called UTAU). I can read Japanese, which is why it's so frustrating that I can't even download it with the Kana intact.
