There are "free" programs. It just depends on if your definition of "free" is a ton of spyware being installed on your PC and it being rather unreliable
That's why I'm extremely careful about what I DL and where I DL it from.

WinRAR is a great program. Far better than WinZip.

95% of archiving programs are far better than WinZip. WinZip is just an extremely basic program, lacking any advanced features, as well as support for a lot of compression algorithms.
