The .cbz format is an encrypted *database* archive. When you choose to archive a
database unencrypted, you get a .cbv format file, but when you choose the
"encrypted" option, the result is a .cbz file. I'm not aware of any way to place
non-database files (such as .iup files) into a .cbz archive, so I think whoever
sent it to you is just yanking you about it being an "unofficial" update -- I
think what they sent you is just a set of database files.

In any event, the only way to get the password is to e-mail whoever sent the
file to you and have them provide it.
