-
- FilZip 3.02 is a file compression tool fully
- compatible to PKZIP version 2.04g.
- It's created using Windows XP, but it's
- also running with Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000 (all tested).
-
- And, of course, it's FREEWARE. It doesn't cost you anything!
- You can use Filzip for free in private, educational, non-profit and
- commercial environments :)
-
- But as I'm a poor student,
- feel free to send some money to me if you like it :)
