My own version of PKZIP. It's quite a bit slower, and it's a bit of a memory hog... but for good reason. KZIP creates smaller .ZIP files than PKZIP with maximum compression enabled! No, I didn't cheat. You see... during compression, PKZIP gives up after it has found so many matches - this is why it is so fast, and also why KZIP can beat it. .ZIP files created with KZIP are compatible with all of the latest .ZIP software - just that if you use KZIP, your file will be a few percent smaller. Decompression is still very fast, making KZIP the perfect tool for shaving off seconds from download times.

Another Ken Silverman utility. Ken has this to say about ZipMix:
Sometimes, when you run 2 different .ZIP programs on the same data (PKZIP & KZIP for example), some files get compressed better in one program, while other files get compressed better in the other. ZIPMIX will take the best files from each one and create a new output file, which is guaranteed to be equal to or smaller in size to both of the input files.
This cool program uses either Zip file or JPEG file to encrypt some of your data. I think it's free, email me if I'm wrong.

#ziplib (SharpZipLib, formerly NZipLib) is a Zip, GZip, Tar and BZip2 library written entirely in C# for the .NET platform. It is implemented as an assembly (installable in the GAC), and thus can easily be incorporated into other projects (in any .NET language). The creator of #ziplib put it this way: "I've ported the zip library over to C# because I needed gzip/zip compression and I didn't want to use libzip.dll or something like this. I want all in pure C#."
Visitor Samuel L. had this to say Extremely useful and well written, well done, great that is open source.
