Winrar Is Good Application

[Whizbang]

Winzip has some very serious competition in Winrar.  It handles many compressed file types including zip files and is cheaper, only $21.00 for a single user.  The only downside that I may have found is that you cannot work within a zipped file with Winrar without extracting the file.  I could be wrong because I did not select the .zip extension as one of the Winrar priority options.  It is a powerful program and is the one of choice for ISO segments downloading.  Function buttons are very eye-catching and easy to understand.  Winrar also will open ISO files.  The shareware locks after 40 days, but the developers have to make a living.

Have a look at Izac, about the same feature set and it�s freeware.

Very impressive so far, and you can indeed edit files within the archive and then save with no problemo.  Thanks.  You get a free cappuccino next time I see you.   ;D

(Edit:) This is getting even better.  The icon assigned to a particular archive actually has the suffix in bold letters accross the archive.  Neither Winzip nor Winrar does this.  I took a chance and simply chose all of the possible archives as IZARC related.  If this program is indeed as good as the package, this guy deserves a donation.
