Email restoration

I have just formatted my PC and am in the process of "rebuilding it".
I took a backup of my email (Outlook Express) using a program called Easy Outlook Express Backup V 1.7.
It backs up all my account details, emails etc in to 1 file (extension .obk)
However now that I have come to restore the file it wont unpack it. I keep getting the error message "Unpacking failed".
Can anyone assist or tell me of a manual way that I can restore this info ?
I really do not want to lose my email and am desperate to restore this file.
Thanks,
Mr_F.
