WinRAR can.

7-Zip can only handle .ace files that are older than Ace 2.0, this is a restriction on the unace package that is used, though, as Legogod noted, WinRAR can handle them fine.

All of these http://www.7zip.com/type/10/ACE can handle the ace format, but I find ZipGenius is the best compared to 7Zip or WinRAR if you decide to use another tool.

Does anyone know anything about Wimba Pronto and its safety?

System Information:
Speccy

• http://www.piriform.com/speccy
  
• OS: XP/Vista/7
  
• A simple, lightweight utility that gives a decent summary of what hardware you've got inside your PC case. From the guys who made CCleaner and Defraggler.

I thought I had included this before but don't see it on the list.

Miscellaneous:
Link Shell Extension

• http://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html
  
• OS: NT4, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows XP64, and Windows7
  
• A must have for SSD owners allowing you to install games/apps to and HDD, then move them to and SSD when in regular use for extra fast loads. This way the game/app is always installed, (Windows registry) but can be moved to the SSD for it's much faster loads. You just drop a junction in the default folder location (Dragged from the new one you copied it to.) and when you start that app up, it will look to the HDD, then use the files from the SSD.
  
  For example, my games are installed to P:\"game directory" on an HDD. Yet play from C:\Games\"game directory" an SSD.
  
  I noticed the TES/Fallout series exterior cell loads lessened the slow down when they load. It's just a quick blip now rather than a 1-1.5 second pause.
  
  To undo it you simply delete the junction, copy the game files to the HDD install location when done playing/using that game/app to acquire that valuable SSD space back for something else you are using often.

Wow, very helpfull, thanx!!!

O.O!!!

I loved that game! I had the disc up until a couple months ago when I threw it away cause I couldn't get it to work. I'll have to download it tonight. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

I would also like to make a suggestion for File Archiver section

http://www.peazip.org/ is a very good one... Never have had any problems with it and it can handle a lot of formats... Even some little addons available are available

vector magic under web apps isn't free...

I think this is one of the most useful programs I have stumbled across, so much so that it was worth searching for this thread just to post it.

Tells you what files on your hard drive are being accessed at the time. Also shows you what programs are sending and receiving information from the web and to what IP they are sending to or receiving from. Shows registry activity, process and thread activity, and profiling events. Can log all of these and save / export the list to different formats for future reference.
Note: Process Monitor and Process Explorer are very different programs.

Look for me on the Extreme Games server. My name is VelvetEdge, I'll either be flying a Lev or a Jav (usually).

Kill ya later!

Perhaps my most-used piece of freeware - I'm so glad I found it:

Photo/Graphics Editor - or - Miscellaneous:
Fotosizer

• http://www.fotosizer.com/download.aspx
  
• OS: Win 98 thru to Win 7, minimal specs
  
• Photosizer is a batch image resizer. It can take folders full of your digital camera images (or other sources) and shrink them down (or enlarge) to a good size for sending and sharing on the Internet. Support for portrait and landscape photos, batch rotation, simple image effects and multiple input and output file formats including JPG, PNG and TIF.

Irfanview does all of this and more, though I guess more options isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Do you know of any programs that can hide folders? I'm sick of people deleting my games.
