Ok. so i downloaded this program on limewire, it was a rar file, i never download exe for virus reasons. Anyway, i checked it wit KAV and it was clean, no virus. Then i unzip it. about 7 files came out 2 of them more rar files. I extracted both. It took about 4 minutes to extract each file, and the whole download off limewire was 6 megs. Each of these files were around 2.5 megs that i was extracting. I thought my computer was major screwed cuz it usualy takes a quarter second to extract a 2.5 meg file. So wen it finishes, out comes an iso, and i check the file size on the iso... Its CLOSE TO 3.5 GIGS!!!!! i dont know how this dude did it but he somhow he managed to get a 3.5 gig file zipped up to 2.5 megs. and it worked on 2 files. the other rar file i unzipped out of the 7, was the second dvd to the program, another 3.5 gig iso!!!

How did he do this????????? I would pay to find out how to save my 300 gig hdd into 150 megs. terabyte of info burned to a cd!!!! Has anyone seen this. Anyone know how it can be done?? I looked for hours on google with no luck. if you dont believe me ill post the file on putfile or somthing (i would understand, i didnt believe my eyes for the first 5 seconds).
