    Use winrar, Its roughly the same as winzip.

    I think the site is http://www.rarlabs.com but if not search google for winrar.

    If this software has not come on a CD then the chances are you will have multiple rar files for the same Game. Best way is to Right Click on the .RAR file and click Extract here, That way you don't get the annoying Nag screen wanting you to purchase the software.

    in the "old" days you could just use (un)rar.exe with all releases, for some dumb reason now a lot of the releases forces you to use winrar etc.. I miss using my dos skills.. yeye, back to linux then :
