PKZIP for Windows (32-bit) is an excellent program for working with compresses ZIP archives.
Using the multi-window interface, you can easily view and manipulate ZIP archives and the files that they contain. File operations include adding, deleting, copying, moving, selecting, sorting, viewing, and, of course, zipping and unzipping. You can customize the display in a variety of ways and you can convert ZIP files into Windows or DOS-based self-extracting EXE files (which automatically extract their contents when run under Windows or DOS). Long filenames are now supported within ZIP files.
Besides ZIP files, PKZIP now supports TAR, GZIP, MIME, BinHex, UUencoded and XXencoded archives. A helpful Wizard is also included.
This newest release adds e-mail send to support. In addition, registered users can create 32-bit self-extracting archives that can be customized in a variety of ways. The EXE can allow an executable to run after extraction, the title bar can be unique, and the EXE can automatically verify its authenticity.
