There's a very nice free programme called iceows which can compress and decompress both rar and zip files and which is free and works well without scripts.
Don't know the link for it though. Andre -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Doc Sent: 23 June 2006 09:30 PM To: PC audio discussion list. Subject: Re: what are RAR files and how to play them Joane rar files are compressed files like zip. ----- Original Message ----- From: "joanne" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "pc-audio" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Friday, June 23, 2006 8:40 AM Subject: what are RAR files and how to play them I downloaded something I wanted to hear but it says it's a RAR file, and none of my 3 players will play it. I did a Web search and it says you have to have some sort of extraction program to play these, but I was unsuccessful trying to use the demo of one they suggested. Can these be played at all or is there a workaround with Win Zip? If anyone knows how I can get these to play I'd appreciate any help. _______________________________________________ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.
