Post by: Apex on February 03, 2007, 12:11:59 AM: I would use something like 7zip which is totally free, and doesn't bother you to register like SOME products. That, and it also supports 7zip files, which Winrar cannot. (As far as I know.)
Title: hmmm
Post by: A Forgotten Legend on February 03, 2007, 12:15:12 AM: I have never seen a 7zip file...

Exactly.

.7z files aren't that common.

Title: thank you Meiscool

I don't know why people always complain about, "You have to register to continue using it!" YOU DON'T. All that happens is that every time the program opens it says, "You really should register." You click "No thanks." and WAHBAM. WinRAR registration is not required at all.

Is direct linking now allowed?

EDIT: Nevermind. It's a legal download. I forgot.

Post by: Desimodontidae on February 03, 2007, 05:35:41 PM: I thought WinRar was free, its never gave me any problems since I first downloaded it. It's never even asked me to register.
Title: ...I downloaded it.

Post by: DragonBlaze on February 03, 2007, 07:17:46 PM: I don't think anyone is angry..

Anyway, winrar is free to download. It says you're supposed to register, but you don't have to. I think my version said it was a 30 day evaluation version, but it never expired after the 30 days.
