Winrar 3.51 FREE again! Grab it while it lasts!

Inf0Byt3 · Post by **Inf0Byt3** » Mon Mar 26, 2007 11:27 pm

Just searching these days for a free diagram drawing software and I stumbled upon the 'so-called' free version of WinRAR. It seems that the users assaulted their servers after the first promotion so the made another one.

The promotion has expired. However this doesn't mean that you cannot still register it legally. Thing is that they sent the same key to all 40,000 users that benefited from the promotion, and now that key is available for download from Simtel (one of WinRAR's partners in this).

To get your key, go here:
http://www.simtel.net/product.download. ... p?id=97173

Now go to WinRAR's official site and download version 3.51: http://www.rarlab.com/rar/
Note that you don't have to download the latest version, instead scroll down until you see the WinRAR 3.51 setup and download it.

Enjoy!

the second link seems to be wrong:
it completes to "http://files3.rarlab.com/rar/", looks like a DIR not a download-site, and there is no setup...

You have to scroll down the directory to locate the executable to download.

cheers

hm.. I did.. didn't find it...

PS:
only setups I found were
"sdsetup-3.2.1.359-afl_winrar.exe"
"sdsetup-3.5.0.478Q-winrar.exe"

...and I was on files4 now...

If you can't find it, can I send it to you? The trial setup? Is this against the license? If not, i can send it to you by e-mail.

[Edit]
Can you please try this link? I tested it and it works for me.

Wow that's strange!

. I thought they made some sort of protection mechanism or something to prevent registration compatibility. No wonder cracks are easy to make

It does not work on my newer versions, where did you download?

Or was it a hack?, which i'm not interested in.

No its not a hack. Ofcourse downloaded from official site.

Works on mine, 3.61, thanks for the info.

Off to get 3.62, like the look of those graphics.

I guess i'll stay with 3.51. The 3.62 doesn't work for me... Maybe 3.61 will...

I think you got a different setup for 3.61 via simtel?
If so, do you have that link for us?
