    I use WinRAR to unzip .rar files, but it wasn't freeware. You could try this app but check it for malware before using.

    As far as .bin .iso files, I don't deal with them. Maybe., someone else has info on that for you.

    I use the following (Extract Now) right here at MG;):):

    Just FYI, .iso is an image file. So if you want to burn it onto a disc in it's original context, you'll need to select burn image with your burning utility. Not sure about Nero though, I haven't used it in awhile. :eek:

    TUGZip is a free archiving app that I've been recommending ever since I first found it here at MajorGeeks a year or two ago... It will unzip just about anything, any extension, including ISO files. But, as posted above, ISO's are images that are meant to be burned directly to a CD/DVD. Using Nero(StartSmart), first choose your disc type CD or DVD, then go to the Copy and Backup section and select Burn Image to Disc. In the next window, simply browse to the location of the ISO and burn it!! Easy, no? Here's a link to TUGZip if you're interested: http://www.majorgeeks.com/TUGZip_d4670.html It will unzip .rar, .zip, .ace, .7z, and many, many, many more. If you have .bin files, they should be accompanied by a .cue file. Open the .cue with Nero (right click, select Open With and browse to the Nero folder, and choose the nero.exe file) and burn it from there.....

    I use Nero for 90% of my burning (mainly DVD vob files and VCD's).... For data I use CD Burner XP.... for MP3 to CDA conversion/burning I use Burrrn...
    Both CDBXP and Burrrn are free....
