Ok im new to this whole deal. now when i download programs alot of them are in .zip and thats all gravy to me. But hwen they are in .rar i cant seem to get them to work for nothing.

Can a computer veteran tell me how to deal with .rar programs?

It'll tell you about a trial period, but you can still use it after its expired... It just has a box pop up telling you "30 days expired, blah blah blah" and then just exit the little pop-up box and there ya go. You can use it beyond the trial period lol

if you want, check out 7zip. its like the open source alternative to winrar Register to unlock hidden link however, it unfortunately only allows unpacking of rars

Thanks alo
