Rar is a compression format, such as .zip. It can be opened with WinRar, easily findable.

I just found so many winrar links in the past 3 seconds between seeing the question and now that I just had to post the whole damn thing.

I like WinRar better than WinZip, because you can just right click and click extract here instead of going though that WinZip crap.

I don't care which is used. Its all the same when it is un....riped?

But I hate it when people use weird programs of that nature that have only one extraction program that cost like $70. Its like do you want me to delete this file already?

Well my WinZip is screwed up anyways... WinRar makes the filesize smaller than if you use WinZip, anyways, so I prefer WinRar.

EDIT: Oh, I see, but still I have to hold my nouse over the button for 1 second, and time is money. xD

Wait I have a question. winrar has nothing to do with games, even if you were view games with winrar and shit. This should not be here.
