Can anybody tell me how to properly use this? Since it's a .RAR and I'm used to ZIPs, I have no clue what to do. I got the winRAR part down, but every time I try to open it, it opens Internet Explorer and immediately closes it then sends me back to the "open" screen.

.rar is just another compressed archive format.
Izarc is one of many tools to unzip it:

As Laurin mentioned .rar is exactly the same as .zip, it's just a different format. There are several tools out there that you can use to uncompress it, IZarc being one of them. I'm a fan of zipeg myself.

I feel this stupid right now, I forgot to actually SET UP winRAR after I dowloaded it... False alarm, all's well.
