It stands to reason that if an update is available for my computer then the Download button should be available for me to just click it,instead of having to prove who I am each time.If Yahoo,MSN and MySpace can develope a tool for signing me in when I come online,so can you.But I'm talking about you signing me in to whatever perspective client that I'm trying to upgrade from.
Works on Vista

WinZip 11.1 work on Vista and is a free upgrade from 11.0. It can unzip RZR and BZ2 files and has a new best compression option that chooses the best compression method to use based on the type of file being compressed. This has reduced the size of my backups, making them smaller than WinRAR! I also like the Job Wizard feature to back up my Documents folder although I edited the provided version to use the date in the zip file name option and to store it on my USB drive instead of in the default My Archives folder. I also got the WinZip/Companion combo pack. Companion is really nice. It works like magic. I just attach files to my email message and when I press send it zips them and replaces the attachments with the zipped version.

It seems that after each release of Zipeg for the last couple of years WinZip is trying to release the same feature. Zipeg with Image Preview -> WinZip with Image Preview, Zipeg with international filenames -> WinZip with unicode filenames, Zipeg supports Rar with encrypted filenames -> WinZip tries (and fails) to do the same...
The only problem is that WinZip is missing the point. 1. Zipeg uses EXIF (fast to read) to extract thumbnails. 2. Zipeg automagically determines the code page for the legacy .zip archives in addition to supporting Unicode filenames. 3. Zipeg is free software and does not try to lock you into any kind of un-archiving solution or nag you for money. 4. Zipeg works on both Mac OS X and Windows.
I do respect and admire earlier WinZip. But when WinZip was sold to a corporation the whole spirit of development changed. Look less professional and much more MBA driven now... :-(
