Tried using 7zip but all it did was install a useless search engine called safe search. Will try out a free trial of winrar. |

Where did you get it from?
Rule #1 when installing freeware that you got from the internet.
NEVER -EVER- click next>next>next>ok>I agree>I agree>ok>next to race through the installer. As you have noticed, there is often bundled software with it. Especially when you have got the tool from the first link Google gives you, since these are usually malicious but pay Google to show at top search results. _________________

I agree:
If you ever want to get 7-Zip always go to the official site
http://www.7-zip.org/
nowadays some opensource tools will include things like
search engines, sidebars toolbars but there should be
an option to untick boxes or to choose not to include
these - Always check what you are installing and read
carefully everything. _________________

I'm certain I chose the no option. But it was a good excuse to get Google Chrome
I'm glad you showed me that because the other one looked Mickey Mouse.
