File from:

<http://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrarw32.exe>

Used for:

Command line freeware Windows UnRAR.

Reasoning for false positive...

Have found nothing in the self extracting archive or during
use of the files contained within it.

license.txt 1570 B 643 B 2004-09-15 23:39
UnRAR.exe 0191 K 086 K 2004-11-02 16:56

Left part of the info off in the previous post...
