I don't know if you'll find it. There used to be both a free and pay version. The free was better than nothing, but limited. It works in both XP and Vista.

The last pay version that I know of was 2.03, but 2.02 is available at Download.com and it may even be the full version for free now.

Many applications will deal with RAR files, like http://www.izarc.org/, and they're totally free.

Oh yeah, I know, but you never have to pay to continue using WinRAR. The only time you get the "Time's up, please buy me" dialog is when you launch the main program. I never do that; I exclusively use the shell extensions, which are the main reason I love it.

I use ZipGenius, it handles almost every type of compressed file.

This one and best of all it's free. ( I don't think it works on Vista )

I actually use the older ver 2.4 and have done so for years. I have never felt a need to upgrade to the newer ver so I can't speak for it but I wouldn't consider downloading any of my e-mail without using it first.

Squeez is the best all-in-one archiver that I know of. Others cannot create some archive types due to licensing restrictions, but Squeez not only can open nearly any archive, but can also create SQX, ZIP, ARJ, LZH, RAR, CAB, GZIP, TAR, UUE, ACE, JAR, BZIP and 7Z archives so WinRar and WinAce are not needed at all.

JohnWill: This actually slows the system down, it doesn't speed it up! Think about it. There is no benefit to having tons of free RAM, that translates to unused RAM.


let me share my own experience guided by NiteHawk, zephyr, Whitphil and ...oh yeah! JohnWill...

Short Keys Lite.

http://www.shortkeys.com/lite.htm

ShortKeys is a utility that allows you to set up replacement text or paragraphs for any given number of user defined keystrokes. ShortKeys monitors the keyboard activity on a global nature and anytime a user defined keystroke combination is typed in, it will be replaced with the replacement text.

Also great for formatting TSG posts

And it's free

The two little applications I use every day:

Cutepdf
http://www.cutepdf.com/
Fantastic and easy app which allows you to create pdf documents from any programme that can print.

Popman
http://www.ch-software.de/popman/
Little app that runs in the background. Lists all the mail you have on your server. You can then delete all the junk directly off the server.
