It's like a zip file. Use WinRar (http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=winrar).

Download and install winrar - click on the rar file you have and winrar will open and then extract it to a directory you specify

Go to that directory and the files you extracted will be there, if it is a program, there should be a setup or install.exe file there - run that to install what you have extracted

Here is a link for winrar
WinRAR download and support. WinRAR is a powerful Windows tool to compress and decompress zip, rar and many other formats: Make Download (http://www.win-rar.com/index.php?id=160&dl=wrar371.exe)
