It's partly my fault - in 1994 or so I discovered RAR (which in those
days was still an abbreviation for Russian ARchiver) on an obscure
Russian FTP site, translated the documentation into English and passed
it around some sites in Europe. All legitimate and above-board, but the
author obviously got annoyed because he released a new version a month
later (with rather worse translation of the docs) and distributed it in
Europe and the USA as well as Russia.

My Internet claim to fame... :-)
