It is a self-extracting RAR archive. You can open it with e.g.
WinRAR (www.rarsoft.com) without executing it.
There was a discussion on this list or TBBETA some weeks ago on
compressing utilities, mentioning other freeware and shareware tools
capable of reading RAR format, perhaps you find it in the archive...
