Freeware Rocks
7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. The program supports 7z, ZIP, RAR, CAB, GZIP, BZIP2, and TAR formats. Compression ratio in the new 7z format is 30-50% better than ratio in ZIP format. It also compresses to ZIP 2-10% better than PKZip and WinZip. It has an additional powerful command line version and FAR Manager support.

everything on the k-lite K++ website is compressed with this now, you might have noticed the filesizes are a little smaller, for those anally-retentive fact fans

Thanks just updated my freeware basics folders. For paying customers. Few & far between, though they are. :P

BTW does anyone think this is better than WinRAR? I don't just wondering what others think. Thanks.

Bad GUI
You need 7z software to open 7z compressed file
Slow, so very slow
