if you're clever enough to ask on a msgboard, technically
you should be clever enough to type 'winrar' into google.

Download it. It is a really small download available from
www.download.com or wherever. It is shareware but it never
expires just reminds you every time you start that it would
be nice to send them some money.

7-zip opens rar files and it's free.

...or another (more free) rar archive utility.

Right click the .rar file, select "open with" and choose
winrar. if it's not there you ain't got it. if you don't
have "open with", and winrar doesn't open when you
double-click the rar file, you ain't got it either.

i don't understand why pirates use the RAR format instead of
the ZIP format - as fas i know, ZIP compresses better than
RAR does
