hooked 0 #1 August 4, 2003 Someone has sent me a zipped file, are there any free programs I can download to view the zipped file? Which program would be better (if there are more than one)?

GigaBuist 0 #2 August 4, 2003 Well, http://www.winzip.com is where you can get Winzip, which is the defacto-standard tool. I don't know why. If you want a free one I've used this: http://download.com.com/3000-2250-10139179.html?tag=lst-0-1 ... and for a listing of more software check here: http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.html?qt=unzip&tg=dl-2001 I'm assuming you're a Windows user. I don't know what to suggest if you're using a Mac, and if you're using Linux you probably wouldn't have posted the question.

WinRAR does the exact same thing as winZIP, but handles RAR (and other slightly less common filetypes) too.
