.rar .zip .ace .r01 .001

These extensions are quite common and mean that your file(s) are compressed into an "archive".
This is just a way of making the files more compact and easier to download.

To open any of those archives listed above you can use WinRAR (Make sure you have the latest version) or PowerArchiver.

If those progams aren't working for you and you have a .zip file you can try WinZip (Trial version).

If the two first mentioned programs aren't working for you and you have a .ace or .001 file you can try Winace (Trial version).
