If you have windows XP then you can use the "Built in" file compressor / unzipper.
Note that it will only work with .ZIP. For .RAR, .GZ etc you will need winrar, takes less than 10 seconds to unzip somthing so not that annoying at all |

I only use winrar for all of my compressed files, better compression and faster |

why would u not download winzip or winrar? thinking they are viriss? well hate to break it to ya but like a million people have downloaded it and no viris yet just go download it. besides preety much anything you download off any site (unless its a application(.exe)) will be most likly zip-ed or rar-ed so its best to get them both anyway, when i reload my computer the first thing i put on after windows is winzip(then i put on winrar after i find out that i cant open some RF maps ) but anyway its best to just download both of them. |

Just get WinRAR, it'll do your .zip files as well.
Means you dont have to install that annoying WinZIP program as well... |

It works fine for me. (so far). Don't have winrar or winzip on my new PC. But then again I haven't dl'd any .rar files from here yet. |

Quoting EvilNastyMan | I only use winrar for all of my compressed files, better compression and faster | Win.rar has better comnpression? Yes...
Win.rar is faster? HECK NO!
Win.zip is way faster. And the reason I still prefer win.zip over win.rar. But maybe you mean it is faster to email/upload a file that is compressed with win.rar? |

No i dont think the files are viruses. I,ve downloaded both pk zip and win zip but i have uninstalled both because of some problem .
Win.rar,Pk.zip,or Win zip wich of the 3 is better? Does win.rar unzip zip files and open rar files? Can someone tell me wich program is better.Oh i have one really wierd problem when the miner gives parker the suit to get into admin i use camera2 to look at parkers face but it wasnt Parkers face turned into the miner wich gave the suit and was wearing an envirosuit.When in first person the hands look ordinary?And when it is loading parker turns into something with 2 mouths and 2 eyes?he is also wearing an envirosuit mixed with the doctor suit and the pistol replces his nose and the silencer can be seen from behind parkers back?but when in fpmode and when parker talks to griffin he looks ordinairy? When i use camera2 to look at him he,s that thingy again .Parker turns ordainary when he gets back the envirosuit?Can someone explian this unusual thing.i think its a bug or something.Graboids,shriekers and ab,s rule(Tremors fan) |
