password protected archives and Ark

Hey, sorry, totally new to KDE. I'm trying to extract a RAR file with Ark (I've got unrar) and am having trouble doing so because it's password protected. I know the password. Is this possible?

Thanks.

Last time when I tryed something like that I was not able to do it from ark, I had to use command line.
Start a 'konsole' and there try commands like 'rar' and 'unrar' and see their help, if they are installed it will be easy.
(Other programs you could try are: file-roller from GNOME and p7zip).

Enjoy
