A .rar file is NOT an audio file. It is an archive of whatever anybody decided to put it it, just like a .zip file which would be created with Winzip. You need to unzip it to see what file you have it it, and extract them and mayeb you have audio files, or maybe not.

You can use the program WINRAR ( http://www.download.com/3000-2250-10007677.html ) to decompress the .rar file. Not ure if WINZIP can handle that.
