"I HATE WINZIP"
Version: WinZip 16.0
Pros
-Basic Functions. That's All
Cons
-Installation Took More Time...
-52Megabytes??? Are You KIDDING Just Having This Lousy Compression Software, Then Came Out Large Programs?
-Reading Of ZIP Is SLOW
-Nobody Cares For "Your" ZIPX Extensions! (BTW, Who Needs That?)
-Difficult To Use
-EXPENSIVE DAMN!Summary
One Of An Examples Of Bloatware... Heavy Yet Slowest!
Whoa! My Comments Were Rated "DOWN" By The Paid-off User Of CNET.... I Can't Believe That! Anyways, Still CRAP ******** I Seen Than Any Other.
Try Other Programs That It Doesn't Bloat. NEVER BUY, SUPPORT NOR TRY-OUT WinZip! Really! Seriously! Don't!
Alternatives I Recommend:
7-zip (Open-source)
WinRAR ($29 For Very Good Compression Software)
HaoZip (China's Free Zip Utility)
Peazip (Another Free Open-Source)
UHARC (For Experts Who Want To Ultimately Compress Files)

"Full of scam-ware, takes over your computer & browsers."
Version: WinZip 16.0
Pros
Couldn't find a single thing I liked about it.
Cons
It's proprietary ZipX can not be opened by any other standard zip/unzip program, so it's useless and a pain in the butt. Free download loaded funmoods.com into all of my browsers and was very difficult to remove. Also loaded Winzip Courier which automatically zipped graphic files and photos - making them impossible to be read at the other end. This whole program. My virus and spam detectors went off and went crazy when I setup this program and my hard drive has residue spread into several subdirectories.
Summary
Do not download or use this program unless you want to spend hours cleaning it out of your computer setups and hard drives. It has no value as far as I can see. Maybe the fully paid program is better, but based on the free evaluation program I'd say that anything good about this program is very unlikely. It seems like it was designed by hacker/spammers. Don't risk your computer by downloading or installing this product. Cnet.com should be ashamed to let this product through and to rate it so highly.

"WINZIP is a good utility 4 compressing data"
Version: WinZip 16.0
Pros
WINZIP extractor needs to be installed in order to UNZIP a file which may inhibit a user from reading the file.
Cons
WINZIP does manage to compress files that contain spaces and now the file takes up less space when stored on my computer.
Summary
I have been using WINZIP to save space on my disk drives the only complaint I have found is sending someone a *.zip when they don't have it installed on their computer.

"I haven't been able 2figure out how 2unzip anything."
Version: WinZip 16.0
Pros
It has many features and I guess would be great for those that know how to use all of them
Cons
Too many choices for me to pick from as far as what I want to do with it regarding a person who is just learning about it. No one to like call and get direction how to work it. If I was more knowledgeable with it, I wouldn't mind.
Summary
Will probably uninstall if I cannot get anyone to help me with this. My XP already had this built in and now I have 7 installed and need this to unzip my pictures and videos I need to download to my computer by end of April as website will be taken down. Without this installed, I won't be able to view the pics or videos if I keep them on my computer. Will have to store on a flash drive instead.

"Good program"

Cons
None - well I remember when it was free!

"works but is not free"
Version: WinZip 16.0
Pros
It works.
You do not have to be a rocket scientist to use it.Cons
There is no free version for people like me who only used it twice in a year.
Summary
The free version only lasts a few days then it stops working. There is nothing to make me want to pay for it and future upgrades because I don't use it often. Many years ago in Internet time :-) I used Winzip a lot because many files were zip files. Today many youth have "crack" codes that let them use the software free all the time. I do not want to pay for the thousands who use the software free. There needs to be a reason for me to hand over $30. Find another sofware that really is free.

"Keep WinZip 15.0 Advantages don't justify the upgrade."
Version: WinZip 16.0
Pros
WinZip is a great tool and multi-taskable. Very versital in many venues.
Cons
There aren't any noticable advantages that can justify making the upgrade purchase from WinZip 15.0 to version 16.0. I want to be 'WOWed' and this version was anticlimactic.
Summary
If you DON'T have WinZip then get it (if you need it) but, if you already have an older version and it works fine... pass.
