Publisher's description of PentaZip
From PentaWare: PentaZip is a compression software program and file viewer. It has earned all three Microsoft logos: Designed for Windows 98/NT, Certified for Windows 2000 Professional, and Designed for Windows XP.

Editor's review of PentaZip
Despite the size of its download, PentaZip has a simple mission: to compress multiple files into archives. At first launch, the software asks you whether to associate all the ZIP files on your computer with the application or to create a new ZIP archive. The more-or-less standard interface offers the basic buttons and features. What is innovative is that you do not need to browse manually through each folder. Instead, you select files from PC folders and drop them into a new archive. The program also lets you create self-extracting EXE archives, schedule operations, and open and convert a variety of archive file formats. For power users especially, the welcoming interface and easy-to-understand features will make PentaZip worth the big download.
