The first sentence is entirely nonsensical, I'm not sure what WinZip has to do with stopping you from downloading files, and if you don't want WinZip on your PC, why don't you just uninstall it?

Thank's alot, Deke, I did'nt put this winzip application on my machine,and don't remember me installing it. I had my machine in for repair's and maybe the tech put in the download without my permission. That's about all I can conclude. Thank's alot for your input,and does this free zip work well, that's all I ask. Again Thanks!

I have put EnZip 3.0 (also freeware) on a '98se and it works perfectly if you find that you don't like FreeZip. EnZip 3.0 Iain.

What do they want for you to register it? $25 or something like that. It's well worth it. I used Arj for many years, which was also excellent, but Winzip is better. I'd think hard before you go off looking for alternatives. On Saturday, November 30, 2002 at 12:27 pm, Hank S wrote: > >Hay!

As others say, it is a great program.
