The link is www.rarlabs.com @Shekhar :wink:

@anurag_online: Download and install WinRAR and open the file with it. .rar files are compressed files just like .zip and WinRAR will uncompress it.

If you dont intend to install WinRAR or any other compression toolz, you can still unpack rar files with the help of freeware utility called unRAR (just a few Kbs) available at *www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm for Linux, Windows and more...............
