WinRAR is a powerful archive manager. RAR
files can usually compress content by 8
percent to 15 percent more than ZIP files
can. WinRAR is a powerful compression tool
with many integrated additional functions to
help you organize your compressed archives.
It can backup your data and reduce size of
email attachments, decompress RAR, ZIP and
other files downloaded from Internet and
create new archives in RAR and ZIP file
format.

comes to compression. By consistently
creating smaller archives, WinRAR is often
faster than the competition. This will save
you disc space, transmission costs AND

automatically recognizes and selects the best
compression method. The special compression
algorithm compresses multimedia files,
executables and object libraries
