problems installing rss_unlimited_categories plugin

hey,
I am trying to install the probably fabulous rss_unlimited_categories and rss_suparchive plugins. the problem is that when i paste the base64 encoded stuff and press the install button I get the following errors:

“Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 0 of 142 bytes in /…/textpattern/include/txp_plugin.php on line 152”
accompanied by: “Badly formed or empty plugin code”

at first i thought i might have a problem with plugin installation in general but i succesfully installed other plugins.
in order to make sure my input is ok I pasted the code into this base64 encoder decoder . even this external decoder failed decoding the rss plugins while it succeeded doing so with others. the outcome is garbaged. well’ im sure you get the point: the input is not ok but i dont have a clue whats wrong with it!

I am doing the copy paste of the different plugins under the exact same environment, using the same browser.
can any one help?

Are you using at least 4.0.3?

Can you check your phpinfo if you have zlib enabled?

Sencer, you were right.
Problem was solved the minute I upgraded to 4.0.3
is this documented with the pluging? I couldn’t find anything like that…
thnx again
