| 124053 | 2003-02-26 05:27:00 | Try WinRar (www.rarlab.com) | antmannz (28) | ||
| 124054 | 2003-02-26 10:05:00 | Winrar has a slight improvement over winzip. It can do both file types ( .rar & .zip). And IS free. Not just a trial that CAN be free for ever. I recommend getting winrar and removing winzip (it becomes obsolete) radz:p |

| 124055 | 2003-02-26 10:22:00 | PowerDesk 5 is an excellent replacement for explorer that handles .rar,zip,tar,tgz,pak,cab and a whole lot of others. The beauty of the program is that a zip file just becomes another folder. I seem to remember it being on a recent PCWorld cd recently. I don't know the url at the moment as it has just changed hands but is still free. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 124056 | 2003-02-26 10:25:00 | it is NOT free. it is a trail ver which can be used over and over (with less annoying splash screen than winzip) and has one or two functions disabled unless you register. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 124057 | 2003-02-26 12:01:00 | winace is good - deals with a whole host of files. free version has a splash screen yet full functionality |
