Just thought I’d let you know.

I wonder which version of sunday 28 July 2006 they speak of…
At least not in our time quantum.

Tugzip is a pretty good freeware util as well… It supports various popular compression formats (rar, arj, zip, ace, lha, bz?).

I’m a fan of freeware alternatives.
But I mostly use winrar because “everybody” does.

It’s a similar situation to mp3 vs ogg, except in that case ogg is clearly better. But winrar and 7zip both have their advantages I think.

For packing, mostly no other application can do it better than the original, for unpacking, it is nice to have a decompression utility that can handle several different formats.

For packing executables, i use UPX which is a damn fine exe-(dll)-packer.

Great offer, thanks!

Edit: Filled out the form, received the email with the link to keyfile. Link does not connect. Maybe because it’s not Sunday, July 28th, 2006? :P

Hot dog! :w00t: I got in. The traffic must have been heavy. Once you fill out the form and receive your email, the link leads to a rarkey.rar file. Install WinRAR v3.51, extract the rarreg.key from rarkey.rar into your installation directory and your all set!

I’m sure they made more money selling on the email addresses they obtained than they would have in a normal days trading, so its win/win.
