A super little program that will allow you to open and view the #1 RAR movie file to see if the quality is okay and decide if you want to continue downloading the full series of files! Also you don't have to wait for the complete download to finish to start playing the movie.
To view a password protected movie file;
Open Rar Player. Click on "File" on menu. Select Streaming from unrar...(no rewind)
Add the password and view the movie.
The viewing will last 8-12 min, you cannot advance and must watch in sequence, but you can exit program at any time.
A very useful program to have if you are downloading movies separated into several files. Then you can just watch the movie from the first movie file and then decide whether or not to waste
another 600 mb of bandwidth and time.

hide your files in images
Here is a cool trick
Did you know you could hide your files in a JPEG file? For this, you will only need to download WinRAR. You just need to have a little knowledge about Command Prompt and have WinRAR installed.
Ok, lets begin…
1. Gather all the files that you wish to hide in a folder anywhere in your PC (make it in C:\hidden - RECOMMENDED).
2. Now, add those files in a RAR archive (e.g. secret.rar). This file should also be in the same directory (C:\hidden).
3. Now, look for a simple JPEG picture file (e.g. logo.jpg). Copy/Paste that file also in C:\hidden.
4. Now, open Command Prompt (Go to Run and type ‘cmd‘). Make your working directory C:\hidden.
5. Now type: “COPY /b logo.jpg + secret.rar output.jpg” (without quotes) - Now, logo.jpg is the picture you want to show, secret.rar is the file to be hidden, and output.jpg is the file which contains both.
6. Now, after you have done this, you will see a file output.jpg in C:\hidden. Open it (double-click) and it will show the picture you wanted to show. Now try opening the same file with WinRAR, it will show the hidden archive .
Done!
This can be pretty useful when you don't want to depend on third party softwares to hide a small number of files on your pc.
Hope you liked that tip.
