Is there a RAR extractor (for multiple rar files like .r00 etc.) that will use all of my quad cores?
I've got a quad core Intel processor. I've got a big file split into little ones as RAR files, foo.r00, foo.r01, etc. which the RAR program extracts into one file/directory. Is there a RAR program that I can specify like "use four cores" in the extract...

Does the rar file format use a serious encryption (such as AES)?
Will it take unfeasibly long to brute force a password?
If not, what tools do you suggest that do so automatically?

The RAR file format is somewhat new to me and I'm trying to understand why people are switching to it over the "zip" file format. What's so special about RAR's?

A lot of people are compressing files with RAR, sending compressed files with RAR and so on.

To see what file to invoke the unrar command on, one needs to determine which file is the first in the file set.
Here are some sample file names, of which - naturally - only the first group should be matched:
