Chris did not get the memo becuase there wasn't one. Someone just submited RAR archive, which - to my surprise and despite to myriad of applications handling all major formats - caused Chris a headache. I don't use WinZip. The market is so saturated with free (de)compressing tools, that nobody should be *buying* one.

Does WinRar let you generate self-extracting archive that can run a program (or a script) after decompression ? 7-zip can - quite useful for installers and patches. 7-zip can do all de/compressing context menu, no need to leave Explorer. And does WinRar come with an SDK that you can integrate into your own applications ? :)

I'd like to use Google Checkout even without bonus because their rates are friendly and they also have some promotion with Google Adwords (I think they process some transaction free if one spends certain amount on Google Adwords), but last time I checked they did not accept Canadian registrations.
