I recently downloaded SP 3 in the form of something called a "ISO Disk."
Seemed like a good way to preserve the updates it in case of a crash, but my
free Frog will not unzip the folder.

I don't know any thing about ISO disks but hate to buy WinRar just for this
file. If any one knows of free ware that will work with ISO disks, please let
me know --

Here's one that I use, though there are probably a few: IsoBuster

It's not something you open or unzip. You burn it to a CD.

The one that I use to create the CD from an ISO is ImgBurn
(http://www.imgburn.com/). It's free, and has been very useful for me.

You could mount the .iso as a drive and access the files on it that way.

But the purpose of an .iso file is to burn a CD with it, so you are
advised to do that. You need an appropriate program like IMGBurn:

http://www.imgburn.com/

It's possible you already have software that can do this. If you already
have a CD-burning program, tell us what it is and we could probably help
you figure out how to perform the function you need. (Note: Burning a CD
*from* an .iso file is _not_ the same thing as copying the .iso file to
a CD!)
