<DIV><SPAN class=150432415-10062003><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was pretty happy
when I stumbled upon a free compression software called 7-zip. This might
be old news to some but new news to me. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=150432415-10062003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Found the URL on the
FooBar2000 website: <A
href="http://foobar2000.hydrogenaudio.org">http://foobar2000.hydrogenaudio.org</A> .
7-zip supports extraction for 001, 7z, arj, bz2, cab, cpio, deb, gz, rar, rpm,
tar and the infamous zip. It supports compression for GZip, tar, 7z, Bzip2
and of course zip.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=150432415-10062003><FONT face=Arial size=2>And...of
course....you cant forget you cant forget about command line support. I
have used its support in Win2k (aaaack) with some customization (had to move the
7zan.exe file from 7zip's directory to the X:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 directory) and it
ROCKS!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
