It's a RAR archive. You can download a trial for WinRAR here. If you don't want to buy it, you can keep the "unrar.exe" command-line utility from its installation directory. That is free (and legal) but you can't create or modify RAR archives with it, just extract. The same could be done with a graphical free archiver: 7-zip.
