Some more alternativesJziphttp://www.jzip.com/jZip is a powerful and reliable compression utility based on 7-Zip archiving technology. It can Create, open and extract Zip, TAR, GZip and 7-Zip. Open and extract from RAR and ISO.KGB ArchiverKGB Archiver is the compression tool with an unbelievably high compression rate. Unfortunately, in spite of its powerful compression rate, it has high hardware requirements (I recommend processor with 1,5GHz clock and 256MB of RAM as an essential minimum). One of the advantages of KGB Archiver is also AES-256 encryption which is used to encrypt the archives. This is one of the strongest encryptions known for man.[Broken Link Removed]PeaZiphttp://www.peazip.org/index.htmlPeaZip is available as portable and installable software for 32 and 64 bit Windows and Linux.

Probably the only way to get it without paying is pirating. For obvious reasons I can't give you details on that.I suggest to use one of the alternatives to WinRAR e.g. 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) or IZArc (http://www.izarc.org/)

I suggest using free alternatives recommended above as well. They support much more archive formats and let you open a lot more archive files in addition to .rar ones.
