Most packaged installers from a lot of companies use WinZip packaged with the installer. Look at the icons for HP printer drivers, etc. All the WinZip icon. It is a fairly useless program though. 7-zip FTW!

Reminiscing much lately, lol. :)
That was my thread I started in 2011: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/136042-not-to-start-a-war-but-is-winzip-still-relevant-love-to-hear-opinions
In my defense, I was spanking new to the forums and was curious because I bounced into a company that still used it and thought it odd.

Lol, was that you? I saw the meme last night and thought it a good one :)

Asking if someone uses WinZip is like asking if any of the WinRaR users actually paid for it, the answer is likely no! 7zip ftw

My company does........claimed others put spyware in their zip files.
My attempts to call BS fail every time it's discussed.

How do those people get jobs? What randomly made them think that all companies, even open source ones, did that but that one random company who doesn't release their code does not?

MFM, I really don't know. I stopped arguing about it and have started insisting that we now pay for the latest version because we are so far behind on releases and the newest features.

Do you want a virus? Because that's how you get a virus ;)
