A protocol specifier.  URLs can handle HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, file, or 
binfile, but yours has none.

What you have is a URL like:

    /path/to/some/file.zip

...and what you want is:

   binfile:/path/to/some/file.zip


To remedy:

   put URL "http://myDomain.com/myArchibe.zip" into \
    URL ("binfille:" & it )
