It stands for TapeArchive.

WinZip or WinRAR should be able to decompress it.

you don't view it, you view what's IN it after you extract it
it's an archive, like a .zip file
i use winrar to extract them personally

EDIT: GOD I HATE PPL THAT TYPE IN CAPS AND USE TOO MUCH PUNCUATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

then go to the new created file, you can find this New file in the directory the you first extrated the tar rar file.Just look around if you cant find it, it should be there.

Next, after you find the new file open the file up and if youu have alot of little files click on the smallest file that is a tar rar or par

i choose the last file because it is the smallest.Then repeat the process again and you should get a mpeg or and bin and cue .If you get a bin and cue file you could burn it with nero image selection or a mpeg will burn in nero too.
Hopes this helps you.

bin and cue is a ready-to-burn format.
They&#39;re probably already around 700 mb, so you&#39;ll need to burn 2 cds in this case.

If you absolutely want to burn them to 1 cd you&#39;ll need to re-encode the movie, but I think that&#39;s a little over your head right now.
