.Bin.EXE Files???

[busto]

Let's say "hypothetically", I downloaded a couple of "files" and they are in .BIN.EXE format what is the best way i can work with them?

First to try is doubleclicking them (after virus scanning them, of course) they may be compressed executables.
If they are real images they will open in ISObuster.
Of course they may be just fake files.

I've never used ISOBuster so once i open the files up what settings do i use to extract it in order to burn it to a disk??...if i just rip it to my HD disk 2 ends up being over a gig and when i try and install it from my HD it can't find disk 2...so i think i want to burn it out and install it off the disks

I beleive that .iso images will often show up as being larger than a 1GB, but they will still burn to an 80 min CD-R.

You can burn just over 1 GB of data in a 99 minutes CD.
Anyway, if you have something like Alcohol or Daemon tools installed you can mount the .bin files as virtual CD's there, and not care about their size.
