Winzip should do it.

Thanks folks... Its been several years since I have bothered to use Winzip, due to the integrated compression/decompression capabilities that are integrated into XP...

I downloaded 7Zip off of SourceForge, and I must say that I was not impressed... It isn't the most user friendly software out there.

Anyone have a link to Winrar?

I just use Winzip and deal with the nag screen. I'm not impressed with the 7Zip interface either. Winrar dies after the trial - Winzip just nags you.
