Hi all!

7-Zip is a file archiver with the highest compression ratio that I have ever seen.
http://www.7-zip.org/
Here is a deal that seems way too good to be true!

It will compress files up to 30-75% smaller than .ZIP (depending on what type of file)

It will even make them self extracting, so you dont have to instruct people on how to use the new format :) (Self Extracting will make the file slightly bigger)

It even opens up Redhat RPM and Debian .DEB files (Windows users will never need to do this, I have no idea why they are includeing this.)

7 Megas --> JPeg 28 Kb very bad
Format Waaves -->27,2 Kb excellent !!! :eek: :eek: :eek:
