When I was on Windows 98, Winzip was my favorite but after I installed Windows Xp, I prefer the built-in zip software with Windows XP(don't know its name).

I use Winzip, as it seems to be the easiest and fastest to use out of all of the zip programs I have used.

I'd highly recommend it.

never used the 7-zip before will check that out.
winzip is okay, its pretty much the standard, but winrar is a good one, not many people still use this. I like it because it compress files down more, you can zip things up to a samller file size.
