WinZip Problem...Please Help!

[Radiant Dawn]

I've used up the free trial period of WinZip and now I've used up the Evaluation Version also! I like to download things quite a bit, and now I can't download hardly anything without WinZip! Is there a program out there that can unzip files like WinZip, but is for free forever, and not just for 50 days or whatnot?

...anyone?

What operating system are you using? 'Cause I'm pretty sure Windows 2000 and everything after comes with WinZip for free.

I have Windows XP: Home Edition and it didn't come with WinZip for free.

Try going to www.tucows.com and doing a search for "zip file extractor". There are a few that come up as "freeware". Try the free ones out until you find one that you like.

None of them appeared to be free.

Once you do the search at "Tucows", the title of the program is on the lefthand side and on the righthand side it describes the file. The first thing listed on the description side is the license description - ie Demo, Freeware, Shareware. Try the ones marked as Freeware like 7-Zip 4.23, CAM UnZip 4.0, MyZippa 3.5.0.250 etc.
