Its the format used by the open source 7-zip. WinRAR will open it. |

Re: se5 JunkYardWars
basically I've joined fyron's crusade against ZIP, zip's compression ratio is crap. I didn't use rar because I'm not terribly fond of winrar, and 7-zip does not create rar, (it will open them however) and like fyron already said, winrar will open .7z

Re: se5 JunkYardWars
File size, beyond 'archived', is of little nessasary interest to a downloader with cable or DSL. Download speeds tend to be one of 'Get yourself a sandwich/drink', 'Time for lunch' or 'Hey, wonder what's on tv' as far as the downloader is concerned.
For the guy who has to pay for the hosting and bandwidth, archive efficiency is more important.
