People still use that thing? I upload stuff to the ftp uncompressed. And the zipped photo sets I d/led are handled by winxp's built-in unzipper.

Actually I used it in earlier Win98 days trying to stuff all my backup files onto just 1 CD-RW. Now, being on DVD it's not really neccessary any longer but I am used to it, and I paid for it, so I continue to use it.

Winrar does zips just fine - why people use winzip when winrar is far better I do not know - well, if you paid for it, but still, updates or not, winrar beats winzip anyway.

A: The main changes in WinZip 9.0 SR-1 include:

* A number of general internal improvements have been made to the WinZip program to enhance security and reliability. In the course of its internal review and testing, WinZip Computing also identified and addressed some specific cases where security vulnerabilities, including potential buffer overflows, existed in previous versions of WinZip.

As of the release of WinZip 9.0 SR-1, WinZip Computing was not aware that any of these vulnerabilities had been publicly described or exploited. However, WinZip Computing recommends that all WinZip users upgrade to WinZip 9.0 SR-1 to avoid the possibility of future exploitation of these vulnerabilities.
* WinZip 9.0 SR-1 also addresses a buffer overflow issue privately reported by a WinZip user that could be triggered by specially-crafted invalid input on the WinZip command line.

As of the release of WinZip 9.0 SR-1, WinZip Computing was not aware of this vulnerability being exploited, and believes that exploitation would only be likely on a system whose security had already been compromised in some other way.
* The main visible change in WinZip 9.0 SR-1 is that WinZip now displays caution messages in some situations, such as when a user double-clicks on a .EXE file compressed within a Zip file, to warn that the compressed file has a file type that could potentially contain a virus. WinZip users who frequently need to work with the file types involved can easily turn the caution messages off.

WinZip Computing has also released WinZip Command-Line Support Add-On 1.1 SR-1. Users of the WinZip Command-Line Support Add-On should also upgrade to this maintenance release, because it contains important security-related fixes and improvements similar to those in WinZip 9.0 SR-1.

Mostly use WinRar but i use Winzip sometimes because unlock winrar, winzip allows you to maintain original order of your zip files. Very nice when downloading from easynews.

Re: Winzip 9 SR1 is out..

ExtractNow is my choice....simple interface and easy to use. Handles zip, rar, ace and jar files. Any other extensions that i come across, i'll use WinRar for.
