Ensuring licensing compliance is part of your job, or if you're a home user, it's just a matter of being fair to the people who put in all the time and hard work. That said, it's important for distributors to fairly price their product, which many do not. When I used to use winzip I paid for it, now I use zipcentral instead (it's free), because file compression and decompression is a trivial function nowadays and shouldn't require expensive 3rd part software.

I am in agreement with the part about file compression being an integral part of any modern version of Windoze. (Are you listening, Billy G.?)
Automatic file compression is built into Millenium. I was surprised to find that it was not when I installed 2000 on this laptop. In looking for a freeware
solution with the look and feel of what is in Millenium, I found Optimal Archive, www.optimalaccess.com.
