   40 bytes (char) - filename + padding

=== Notes and Comments === 

* Files inside those archives are compressed with ZLIB and encrypted with custom XOR encryption.

=== Decryption method === 
Implementation for decryption method written in Python:
<pre>
def decrypt_data(in_data):
    xor_res = b'\xBB'
    data_size = len(in_data)
    out_data = bytearray()
    
    for curr_offset in range(data_size):
        data_byte = struct.pack("B", in_data[curr_offset])
        xor_res = xore(xor_res, data_byte)
        out_data.extend(xor_res)
    
    return out_data
</pre>
