You wouldn't have zip (instead of rar) perhaps

Hmm...I don't. WinZip costs money, and I only pay for things I'm going to use reasonably regularly. I almost never bother compressing things any more. ; )

WinRAR is available for download here. The version I have is quite old, but also completely safe; I'm a bit of a paranoid when it comes to spyware and viruses. The new version should be safe too.

Alternatively, someone who has both WinRAR and WinZip might be willing to download all three of my rars, and zip them up together into one file to upload...?

In the meantime, here's the Bug1 .trn file. I just renamed it .txt; the data should remain the same. Hopefully you can change the extension back to .trn and take a look at it. If this works, and you need me to, I could upload the other two files this way as well...

WTF? You can create zip archives just fine with WinRar, I do that all the time.

...And I just finished figuring out how to do it, too. Heh. Never done it before.

Hopefully my last upload. I've used WinRAR to convert the files to .zip format; please let me know if they don't work for you, K.O.

in Winrar you can just select to save as zip (well in my version atleast, maybe it even came with vista?) though zip produces a bit larger files..

It is strange though that the inferior program is used here while winrar is just as easily available..
strange pplz here

WinRAR may be better than WinZip, but I have been using PKZIP.EXE since 80s... and picked WinZip from first batch of graphical user interface heirs. I'm sure that many are like me :-)

And I prefer WinZip's interface to WinRar's interface.

But no, we are not strange. We are old :-) (I'm over 60, and too damn old to learn good English, or change my programs with no good reason)

And there is an "unrar" available for linux if that's the issue.
