What's new in WinZip 5.0 Beta RC1

- Built-in zipping
- Support Windows-based virus scanners.  Two scanners are
  automatically detected by WinZip:
    NAVW, distributed with Norton Desktop for Windows 2.2
    WNAPVIR, distributed with Central Point Desktop for Windows
  The MWAV.EXE scanner distributed with MS-DOS 6.0 is not supported
  because it does not provide command line switches for automation
  PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU TRY A DIFFERENT WINDOWS BASED VIRUS SCANNER!
- New icon (comments on the new icon are welcome).
- File/Information... dialog box (shortcut: click on status line)
- Built-in unzipping is used when running DOS virus scanners
- Added built-in Actions/Test for zip files, so PKUNZIP is not needed.
  (Note: you can force WinZip to use PKUNZIP for the Test operation by
  holding the shift key while selecting Actions/Test.)
- Multiple WinZip windows (instances) can now use the built-in unzipping
  (and zipping) at the same time (4.1 runs PKUNZIP for the second instance).
- Internal unzipping is now used when fileids are specified in the
  Extract dialog box (earlier versions used PKUNZIP in this situation).
- The "Optional Working Directory" in the "Directories" dialog box can
  now be used for removable media only.  By default the "Optional
  Working Directory" is set to your temp directory and is used for
  removable media only.  Press F1 in the "Directories" dialog box for
  more information.
- The Checkout features now uses subdirectory information in archives
- Clicking on an inactive WinZip window does not activate abort dialog
  during zip or unzip operation - you must activate the window THEN click
  on it to get the abort dialog box.
- The extract operation will now issue an error message if you try to overlay
  a file that is "in use" by Windows, even if SHARE is not loaded.
  For example, you can't accidentally replace the copy of WINZIP.EXE
  that you are running, as this could cause a crash.
- Zero length ZIP files opened correctly
- Built-in unzipping now creates zero length files when appropriate
- Build-in unzip handles hidden subdirectories
- The text of default button in the "Add" and "Drop" dialog boxes
  reflects the selected action (Add, Freshen, Update, or Move).
- Better sorting (e.g. sort by type also sorts by name)
- Extract combo lists directories in uppercase/lowercase per Config dialog
- Optional beep now only sounds if archive operation took over one second
- If no CheckOut Base Directory is specified and the archive is on a floppy
  WinZip suggests the Temp directory as the Checkout base directory.
- Added "Always On Top" to the system menu
