    Win Rar ISO's

    I have just downloaded "a program"

    Now. This program is in a win rar archive and is named 'program'.ISO.

    What do I do with it?!

    I have extracted it and it is now in a normal folder, but I assume I will need to burn it to cd before it will work.

    However, if I burn this folder it will just appear as a folder on the CD wont it? and wont actually boot as thought its the actual program?

    Advice please, not dealt with many downloaded ISOs!!

    Theres a program called ISOBuster which is good for checking out ISO's too, you can open/extract/covert ISO's etc.

    You can browse iso's just using winrar too :)

    Best to use winrar to browse it first, if you mount it straight away it could have nasties in it... (Most virus scanners only go 6 compression layers deep - you wanna check for any further compressed files in zips, rars, isos, etc before attempting to run anything...).
