7-Zip is pretty quick and gives you some of the best compression ratios, but its not the easiest to use. IZArc is slower, but has a very easy to use interface and I think it supports more archive types. 7-Zip Homepage: http://www.7-zip.org/ IZArc Homepage: http://www.izsoft.dir.bg/ Ed -----Original Message----- From: pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Andrew Gillean Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 10:17 AM To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: need zip program You could try "7 Zip".
