WinZip is the original Zip file utility for Windows--and by far the most popular. Combining power, ease of use, and unrivaled reliability, WinZip has won numerous awards and has been downloaded from the Internet over 125 million times. You can quickly and easily compress and decompress files, folders, and entire folder trees to save storage space, dramatically reduce e-mail transmission time, and efficiently archive documents. WinZip includes two separate interfaces to accommodate all types of users. If you are an infrequent user of Zip files or just need to accomplish basic tasks quickly and easily, the Wizard interface provides simple, step-by-step guidance to make working with Zip files a breeze. If you are comfortable with Zip files and need greater power and flexibility, the WinZip Classic interface has everything you need. Whichever interface you choose, the other interface is just a click away. A few of WinZip's many other features: ** Zip, unzip, and one-click Zip and E-mail directly from Windows Explorer or My Computer. ** Automatically install software, desktop themes, and screen savers contained in Zip files. ** Quickly find your Zip files with Favorite Zip Folders. ** Instantly access recently used Zip files and other WinZip features from the Windows taskbar tray icon. ** Take full advantage of Windows XP features including fast user switching and XP themes. ** Decode most popular Internet file formats, including MIME, UUEncode, XXEncode, TAR, BinHex, and many others. ** Split Zip files into smaller parts to overcome e-mail size constraints. The latest version of WinZip, 9.0, adds state-of-the-art AES encryption for your sensitive documents, includes support for the 64-bit extended format, which for all practical purposes eliminates existing restrictions on Zip file size and capacity, and supports enhanced deflate compression for even greater compression of many types of files.
