What do you do with files with a .rar extension? Do you have to convert them? Do you use HJ Split?
.rar is the extension used by WinRAR, a compression agent similar to WinZip. If you Google WinRar, you should be able to find a copy you can download and install. From there, you just need to decompress the files you're interested in with the utility and enjoy.
If you don't have winzip here is a link for what I use, unzip it with native WinXP
ZIP function and install, the right click menu will show the additional options.
To use - right click an *.rar archive file and select from Iceows " extract here "

Another very highly rated and even more so than Iceows, is IZArc

WARNING - if you want to avoid nightmarish configuration issues you must
FIRST uninstall any similar zip utiliy you may already have before installing any
other you may want to try.
