… So if you have received a RAR file but don’t have the software to view it you can easily convert it to a 7-zip or a zip format and view it with WinZIP or 7 zip.
With all due respect both Winzip and 7zip are great. Alternatively Zipeg from http://www.zipeg.com allows you to really view zip or rar content and it is free. Works best with photo-archives.

Yes i tried http://youconvertit.com, they are amazing and can do the following:
1- Convert document, images, audio, video and Archived files.
2- Convert any Youtube and other Online Video to popular formats or download the video
3- Send file(s) up to 300 MB to friends or post it on any forum for 7 days
4- Convert any type of units (Acceleration, Area, Torque and others)
what makes them amazing is you can add up to 5 different file formats, i used them to convert a document and couple of audio files.
Try them and give me your feedback http://www.youconvertit.com
I also tried zamzar but they are retrciting you to one type of file conversion and to 100MB unless you want to pay money.
I never heard about Media Converter and i tried them, they seem ok but the process of converting seems so messy, i used youconvertit.com and i prefer them.
