RAR Format

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.compaq (More info?)

Just when I got a hand on that dang yenk format now I find something
called "rar."

What in the heck is this? And is there a good free program to open up
these files?

I've used UltimateZip 2.7.1 (download from ultimatezip.com) for a long time
with Windows XP Home. The only problem I've noticed is that occasionally
after use and exiting the software, the ultimatezip process fails to close
automatically, so I close it via Ctrl-Alt-Del if necessary. They have a
later 3.0 version which I haven't tried. It handles RAR and any other
compression formats that I've ever wanted. Free for private use.
