Have you ever wondered why it use to take so long to download a program or another file off the Internet, an online service, or a BBS? The Internet has presented many challenges to software, hardware, and communications engineers over the years. Among them are file size, bandwidth, and the speeds involved in uploading and downloading a variety of file types. The compression of files has been an important factor in the success of the Internet. Brian Howard has written WinZip for Beginners to offer members of the online community valuable information about the operation and use of the most popular data compression program available today. WinZip has been a fixture in the computing industry for a number of years, providing reliable compression and management of files. Readers are presented with an insightful overview of the compression process and shown why the technology that has been incorporated into WinZip is important for successful online communications as well as for general computing use. The author provides an excellent examination and presentation of this leading program. Installation, setup, options, and general operation are covered. Readers are also shown how to put WinZip to use, such as for preparing files for transferring online, creating e-mail attachments, and copying files onto diskettes and other storage media devices. The CD that accompanies the book includes the latest shareware edition of WinZip. It can be put to immediate use! This fully illustrated book will educate and prepare hobbyists and online businesses alike, helping them to make more effective and productive use of their time, effort, and money. This is an essential book for anyone seriously involved with the use of the Internet. Information sharing will be a Zip!
