I knew you'd bring that up. Zip is widely recognised and supported, and even on-technical ppl generally know how to handle zip file (I work in IT support, and I know this from experience). Also, zips are handled almost transparently in XP or by earlier Versions oif they install the right software.

For the sake of an extra few % compression is it really worth switching to something more obscure like .rar?

From MM/SF/mods, using best compression all around:
code:
P&N-AllCampaigns.rar        05-May-2004 18:22  545K  
P&N-AllCampaigns.zip 04-May-2004 17:52 1.8M
