Opening BIN files?

I've downloaded a large file that has 7 folders to it. It also has a:

tda
MSInfo Document
13 kb

When I double click any of the 7 folders I see something like this in each:

tda-cs2
BIN File
420,3000 kb

I have Nero installed and I probably need to use it to burn the files but I dont know how. I've tried several times but I know I'm doing something wrong. Thanks in advance.

What kind of file is it supposed to be?

I would be careful because .bin files that are accompanied by an .nfo file (it's not a MSinfo doc but has the same extension) are usually pirated software or media files and are often likely to harbor a virus or worm. Our policy at Virtualdr is to not discuss such items or offer advice on them if it turns out to be one of those types of files.

Umm, you may want to clarify just what this file is.

I am sure its not but ... it sounds very much like the illegal download (jail time beckons!) of copyrighted software Adobe CS2, cracked by the warez group TDA.

If its a legal file fine, we can help, but for illegal software we cannot.

*edit* fink types faster than me ! :p *edit*

How can discussing bin files be against any rules? Thats like me telling you I've got a candy bar and asking for advice on how to open it. Then you come back and tell me my candy bar is possibly stolen therefore its against the rules for you to tell me how to open it. ;)

All I'm asking is how to open the file. I'm guessing it should be an image file and I could use Nero to burn it to cd and go from there. However, its not working that way.

Thanks for the reply. However, I dont believe discussing BIN files would be against the rules.
