Oh, I forgot to specify.
Version MegaGlest 3.5.0 beta 2, windows  7 32bit (and I tried 64bit).
Other versions of MegaGlest I have not tried.

It has to be 7-zip. Winrar is proprietary software and can't be called from another application. 7-zip is open source and thus Glest is able to extract such files without problems. In all honest, winRAR doesn't have a single advantage over the 7-zip program, and if you can name one, I'll eat my signature text!
