• FreeZip - This small, fast and seriously cool compression utility for Microsoft Windows operating systems integrates seamlessly into Windows Explorer, so even Internet newbies and inexperienced computer users should find it a doddle to use. The program performs the task of decompressing ZIP files very well. Alternative language options are also available, including English, German, Polish, Italian, Swedish, French and even Chinese.

• CoffeeCup Free ZIP Wizard - This freeware program from CoffeeCup makes uncompressing ZIP files a breeze. On the flip side, if you wish to compress files (rather than decompressing them), this program performs this task just as effectively. The program also has built-in e-mail and FTP functions, so once you've compressed a file, you can send it via e-mail or upload it immediately. This program's "wizard" interface is great for beginners.
  > A number of other freeware programs are provided by CoffeeCup, including Free HTML Editor, Free FTP and Free DHTML Menu Builder.

Currently available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Swedish. the program functions on most Microsoft Windows operating systems above Windows 95.

To download, select the program from their menu and follow the instructions.

• 7-Zip - Ideal for those "zip power users" who want the maximum compression ratio. 7-Zip will meet the demands of people wishing to backup large amounts of data with convenience. It also supports various file formats, e.g. ZIP, CAB, RAR, GZIP and TAR. The interface is very similar to Windows Explorer and includes a command line interface. Note: the program is completely free, although donations are accepted.

• Task Zip - Here's a different approach to backing up your important files. TaskZip uses the advantages of compression to make duplicates of your work, then stores them into a single zip file. This can then be copied to CD or other media. The program also allows you to backup your files across entire networks and has various options so you can configure this without too much hassle.

• Ultimate Zip - An impressive site, housing an impressive (and free) archiving utility. UltimateZip can perform compression functions on 16 different archive types, including the most popular: .zip, .rar, .tar, etc.) Multi-disk spanning, a skinnable toolbar, backup features, zip repair and an easy-to-use wizard are just some of the quirks you'll find on UltimateZip. We highly recommend it.
  > Ultimate Zip is no longer freeware but you may download a shareware copy. If you're looking for a robust and feature rich ZIP application with strong security and backup tools, then Ultimate Zip is an excellent choice.
