OK, I am getting sick and tired of seeing this type of question.
It is easy enough, even for a Melbournian Aussie, to find this out for themselves.
Anyone reading this question and tempted to reply - don't! I haven't filled my quota yet for banning today and anyone who does reply - will be added.

Thats a fair enough comment, and generally I'm sure questions like this pop up a lot.
Sometimes however its hard to see the trees thru the forest and when your looking for something you know should be easy to see (hence why the call me stupid) its not hard to get feedup looking for it.
As Mod why not put these commonly asked questions into something like a FAQ and make it sticky at the top of the forums?

Also, in the same breath, while these questions must get to you, could have just as easily pointed out the right direction to look in. Thats not a dig or a flame, just a comment. I wouldn't have tracked down the forums to ask if I could have found what I was looking for.

Interesting to see you 'tracked' down the forums, wouldn't it have been as easy to do a search on Gamecopyworld, there are enough exlanations about ace files there, and when doing a search on google for 'ace' and then searching within the returned posts for 'compression' the very first response was a link to the site where to get the relevant decompression program from.
Now these are the clues as to the method of searching.
Probably a lot quicker that your tracking down of these forums.
