Your first task this week is to download a software archiving utility called WinZip . WinZip is a utility that compresses and uncompresses files.
Compression is used to create files that take up less disk space.
Most software that you download from the WWW has been compressed in order to permit faster transfers. That's why we need this application. Click on the button below to access the WinZip Home Page. When you click on the download link, the file should begin downloading after a few seconds. A dialogue box will pop up and ask if you want to save the file to disk or open it from the site.
