Top search hit for windows tar is <http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/tar.htm> , but its contents suggest using <http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/bsdtar.htm> instead (it has "the ability to direcly create and manipulate .tar, .tar.gz, tar.bz2, .zip, .gz and .bz2 archives, understands the most-used options of GNU Tar, and is also much faster; for most purposes it is to be preferred to GNU Tar", to quote).
