GeckoandFly are not a big fan of Internet Explorer. It is advisable to switch to a different browser such as Chrome or Firefox, Opera is still not quite to my liking, Safari on the other hand is not as fast as it claims to be. I guess there won’t be much of a difference if you have a pretty fast broadband connection. Security could be one of the main priorities. Go for Firefox.

What Is .Bin File And How To Unzip .Bin Files

What are .bin files for? How to unzip bin file? Bin files, unlike other files with a .exe or .doc extension don’t have a dedicated software associated specifically to it. Bin file stands for binary, making it a universal file for almost anything. It can be a video file, or a rom for an emulator.

  • Video file saved as raw binary data from a DVD or other media; may be saved along with a .CUE file that describes what data is saved in the BIN file. Software: VideoLAN VLC media player
  • Game ROM of a Sega Genesis video game; stores the data from a Sega Genesis cartridge in a single data file; can be played on a PC using a Genesis emulation program. Software: Gens Plus!
  • Disk image created from a CD or DVD; can be mounted by the computer and recognized as a physical disc; similar to the standard .ISO disc image format. Software: IsoBuster, NTI Dragon Burn, Roxio Easy Media Creator and more


Bin files are everywhere, it is hard to associate it with a single purpose. From your antivirus to windows, from your printer driver to SNMP files. One of the main reason for software developers to use bin files instead of a known extension associate with the programs is to avoid the end user from executing it. So “less important” binary files are usually just named .bin to avoid hassle.

Unless you known the exact content of the .bin file, it would be wiser to leave it as it is.
