call me paranoid, but there's so many sites out there offering this, including an official one, that if anyone can tell me where YOU safely downloaded it?

Thanks in advance. I had it on another computer that went kerplutz.

Thanks! Like I said, I'm paranoid...even of 'official' sites sometimes (that site seemed a little too simplistic).

The original site is safe. I'm very dubious of those sites where they have EVERYTHING. I always look for the original source.

Places like https://www.zdnet.com/ will always have safe download links.

I use winRAR usually as it can remember passwords to archives. I note it claims to be more efficient at compressing that winRAR which is good but if I swap to it will it do the remembering passwords thing? Saves a lot of time when unpacking Pbthal rips for instance.

I've encountered lots of archive files which could be opened with 7-zip and nothing else. One can have both on the machine.

I went home last night and powered up my laptop. I have just that, both on that machine.

It's doesn't remember passwords, I remember now that's why I don't use it. But I will keep both for the situations you describe.
