Once upon a time in 2001, winzip.com release winzip, download was a fucking zip file

Suprnova.org, winrar 3.41 corporate in a fucking RAR file

the term "updates" springs to mind. surely the people using them already have the product...

however, for those who don't already have any kind of version, this could pose a slight problem... maybe...

nah i think what he meant was that if someone already had a previous version, they could use that to unzip the newer one type thing...

both WinZip and WinRAR are downloaded as applications for the shareware versions. Its just expected that if you are to go illegal with the corporate edition then you would obviously have the shareware version installed first

The "corp" edition is probably a pirate repack, as there is no official corporate edition,,,,,,,,

Are they not self extracting versions of themselves? In that you don't need to have already had winzip or winrar installed to uncompress them? In Winzips case it doesn't really matter anymore seeing as Win XP has support for zipped files incorporated

I dont think self-extractors are ZIP and RAR files though
