You can now see the file names inside a zipped file before you download it using FireFox, Archview lets you preview the files inside a zip or rar file and also allows you to download files from within an archive before completely finishing the download of the file.

As soon as you hit the download of any archive ( zip or rar ) file it fetches information about it and displays the contents almost instantly and presents the list files of the archive in an XUL or HTML interface.

Features:

What It Can Do

  • Directly access archive files on Web or FTP server.
  • List the catalog of archive file.
  • Open or download an individual file.
  • Support RAR and ZIP formats.
  • Support HTTP, FTP and file: protocols.
  • Can present HTML or XUL interface.
  • Only fetch necessary data rather than the whole archive file.
  • Work together with Firefox, easy to use.
  • Platform independent, (theoretically) support all platforms that Firefox can run.
