1. WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! (click on link)

2. TUGZip (click on link) does everything winzip & winrar can do but more. And it's free. It can compress all those formats. But a word of advice, don't let it be the default of any format. It's a PITA when you do. It changes the icon image of any file that falls within that format.

3. RAR = http://filext.com/detaillist.php?ext...&Search=Search

Yeah the older I get the slower I get, At least that is what my wife says.

Just downloaded TUGzip, it appears to be a pretty good program gotta play with it for awhile see if I can break it. :D

Actually I think this summer (our time) the ashes themselves are coming here for a visit. Only the 2nd time ever & the 1st time in 30 yrs ... last time during the centenary.

Tugzip doesn't open ISO files? Oh well, I'm sure both Nero & Roxio can. After all, ISO are cd image files.

No, you have to use WinISO or ISO Buster. ;)

You can make ISO with Nero but, not sure if you can open them with Nero.

Alcohol 120% works great for ISO files.
