FreeZip: unzip utility

**gervin100** · 07-29-2004, 01:34 PM

Hello this thread is designated to help other members who can't open zip files that are using Win 98(SE), ME, or 2000. (If you have Win XP you don't need this.)

Download FreeZip from http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...id,6383,00.asp

WinZip, and most other Zip programs use identical compression code, originating from the same source. However, FreeZip has the advantage of costing you nothing.

I like WinAce because it supports a dozen or so other compression formats and lets me customize the level of compression.

I'll see your free Zip program and raise you a free IZArc program that does lots of formats, including ZIP.
