WinRar 3.51 Released

RAR is a general purpose archiving and compression program competing with/replacing programs such as PKZip, ARJ, and others. It offers significantly improved compression ratios, easier use and a cheaper price as well as supporting long file names, disk spanning, and self-extracting file creation. Bugs fixed:

a) fixed two vulnerabilities, which could be exploited with
specially crafted ACE and UUE/XXE archives;

b) previous version did not delete some of temporary files;

c) WinRAR could crash when processing very long (more than
1024 characters) archive name parameter in the command line.
