Stan Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 What do you call "Generic"? Winzip is shareware, this means that you got a trial and you need to pay for it after the trial if you wish to continue using it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newfoundking Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 winRAR lets you download and after the trial period a little box will come up, if you click the red X there, it'll disappear and you can continue use freely... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
