Google for a serial. They aren't exactly hard to find[/disalowed_advice]

Why bother cracking stuff when theres free legal alternatives? pfft

 

try 7zip

 

 

 

edit: after the trial all you get is a nag screen telling you to buy it before you can compress/uncompress a file, it doesnt actually stop working.

Just for the sake of testing 7zip vs winRAR on my own file set, I used My Recived Files.

 

 

 

141MB of pure random file types and quantities of.

 

 

 

With both using their best compression...

 

 

 

7zip: 88,360KB

 

winRAR: 88, 518KB

 

 

 

 

 

*shrug* I'll stick with my more easy accessable and widely supported archiver.

What version are you using?

Long since retired.

just have winrar integrate itself into windows, right click on zip and rar files to unpack them. i never pack anything, so i dont know how that works.

If your going to try and download as much as possible, just make sure your internet plan allows it. Wouldnt want to have a sky high bill now, would we?

You can do that with 7-zip too

WinRAR just gives you an annoying message after the trial is over. You don't even have to wait for it to disappear or anything; you just click "close", and you can use the program :)
