Must I register rar for linux?


I downloaded rar for linux, but it says "Anyone may use this software during a test period of 40 days. Following this test period of 40 days or less, if you wish to continue to use RAR, you must register."

Must I register it? And if so, can I register it freely?

There is program for linux called unrar, that you can download for free and you don't need to register it.

Hello, reddazz!
I visited the unrar download page, but I don't kown which to download. There is RPMs( but only for FC system), and unrar for PowerPC, for AMD64, for Familiar Linux. I'm using slackware 10.1, which package should I download?
