I saw that all my installed Software were not here!

Full virus scan should be done

I think its the RAR Fault Thks for ur help see ya!

Always extract dodgy RAR files into a sandbox or virtual machine environment... some game distro's which may be 'free' are packed with trojans, rootkits, other virals - just to exploit unwitting end users...
