How to compress and attach files or folders from My Computer or Windows Explorer?
To compress files or folders and attach them to a new e-mail message from My Computer or Windows Explorer, simply right-click on the files or folders and choose Zip and E-Mail from the context menu. WinZip will compress the selected items to a temporary Zip file, create a new e-mail message, and attach the Zip file to it. You can then address and mail the message as you normally would. WinZip will automatically delete the temporary Zip file when it is no longer needed.

How to compress attachments while composing messages
You can use the technique described here to compress attachments while composing messages using Outlook, Eudora, Netscape Mail, and other programs that allow you to attach files using the standard Windows "File Open" dialog box. This technique does not require a MAPI-compatible e-mail program.

1. Open the dialog box you normally use to attach files:

• In Outlook: choose File from the Insert menu. o
• In Eudora: choose Attach File from the Message menu.
• In Netscape: choose Attach and then File from the File menu.
• In AOL: click the Attachments, then the Attach buttons.

2. Using the standard Open File dialog box, locate the file you wish to attach.

3. Position the mouse pointer over the filename in the dialog box, then click the right mouse button and choose Add to filename.zip from the context menu (note: the filename shown in the menu entry will be the same name as the file you selected). This will create a new Zip file with the same name as the file you selected; for example, it would create Budget01.zip from Budget01.xls.

4. Click once on the name of the new Zip file to select it. This file will normally be at the end of the current directory listing.

5. Click the Open or Insert button to attach the Zip file. You can delete the Zip file after attaching it.

Note: this technique has been tested with Outlook 97, Outlook 98, Outlook 2000, Outlook 2002, Outlook 2003 and Outlook Express; Eudora 3.0, Eudora 4.0 and Eudora 5.0; the mail program in AOL 4.0, AOL 5.0, AOL 6.0, AOL 7.0, AOL 8.0, and AOL 9.0; and the Netscape 4.0 mail client.

How to mail a Zip file directly from WinZip Classic

Using WinZip's Classic interface you can mail the currently open Zip file without leaving WinZip:

• If your default e-mail program is MAPI-compatible, simply choose Send To...Mail Recipient from WinZip's File menu. (If your e-mail program is not running, it will be started automatically.)

• If your default e-mail program is not MAPI-compatible, you may be able to use the drag-and-drop interface to add the Zip file you have open in WinZip to an e-mail message. Simply drag the WinZip status line to your e-mail program:

1. Click on the WinZip status line (the bottom line of the WinZip window).

2. While holding down the mouse button, move (drag) the mouse pointer to your e-mail program. 3. Release the mouse button.

Note that this technique requires that your e-mail program support the standard drag-and-drop interface, so it may not work with all e-mail programs.

How to mail a new or updated Zip file from the WinZip Wizard
After you have used the WinZip Wizard to create or update a Zip file, you will see a button labeled Mail this Zip file. When you click this button, WinZip will create a new e-mail message and attach the Zip file to it. You can then address and mail the message as you normally would.

How do I install your programs (what's a .ZIP file)?
Installation varies from program to program; most of the programs have their own installer (these files end in an .EXE), and you simply need to double click on the icon, and follow the directions.

Now other files are in a compressed format called "PKZIP", which makes the download size smaller and speeds up how quickly you get it. In order to use a program that has been compressed like this, you need a utility that will expand it back up to its original size. There are many utilities like this, but the easiest is probably WinZip. It's a relatively small and very easy to use program, and you'll find it immensely useful the more time you spend downloading things off of the net, since a very large amount of the information is compressed using utilities similar to this. Once you have downloaded and installed it, click Open or Run this program from its current location.

My web browser asks me if I want to save or open the file. What should I do?
When downloading the software, your web browser may ask whether you want to save the file or open it from its current location. It is always recommended that you choose to save the file to a directory on your computer's hard drive. This way you can reinstall the software at a later date without having to download it again. After the download is complete, you can install the software by double-clicking on the file.

I just downloaded and saved the file to my hard drive, but I forgot where it is. How can I find it again?
This is a common problem and the solution is very easy. Normally your web browser defaults to the same directory for every download, until you change it. An easy way to find out the download directory is to simply start another download. When asked, choose to save the file to your hard drive and the "Save As" window will appear, revealing your download directory.
