Go here and download Winrar: http://rarlab.com/download.htm
Also .rar files are archive files kind of like .zip files only with .rar files they can be split up into multiple archive files.

Thanks John, but this is a PC file and not for mac..

Havent used WinRar too much but I'm guessing that even if you could decompress the .rar file that was created on the PC that your Mac might not open it anyway.

the file is a .rar file and im running mac osx 10.4.7 that is the latest! Thanx
You stated you wanted to "play" the file...a .rar file is nothing but a compressed archive....when it is uncompressed it will contain 1 file or it could contain thousands....nevertheless once uncompressed the files would then be playable.
