Freeware: Compression Utility

	Chilkat Create Self-Extracting EXE from Zip  License: Freeware
	Create self-extracting ZIP files optionally with unbreakable AES encryption. The ChilkatZip Self-Extractor can safely encrypt the contents of your ZIP file with 128, 192, or 256-bit AES Encryption. To unzip, a user must provide the same password that was used when creating the self-extracting EXE. AES encryption is much stronger than standard ZIP encryption, which is regarded by security experts as being unsecure. Chilkat's streaming compression and encryption technology allows the ChilkatZip Self-Extractor to create an EXE from any size ZIP file. The streaming compression and decryption technology also ensures that it will be possible to unzip the archive on your end-user's computer, even if that computer has very little memory.

	PECompact (Student version)  License: Freeware
	PECompact compresses Windows modules (EXE, DLL, SCR, etc..) substantially, while leaving them able to be run just as before. At runtime, compressed modules are rapidly decompressed in memory. Smaller (<50%) size usually means quicker load time. PECompact generally compresses files much smaller than if they had been compressed by modern data compression software such as RAR. This is accomplished by restructuring and pre-processing that make modules more compressible. Compression also adds a layer of security to modules that resists tampering and reverse engineering. PECompact supports multiple compression formats, including LZMA, through the use of CODEC plug-ins. Custom loaders (decompression) stubs and API hook plugins are also able to be utilized. Advanced configuration includes selection of resource types that should be compressed as well as other parameters that offer a great deal of control over how modules are compressed. A GUI and console mode application that supports wildcards and directory recursion are included. THIS FREEWARE (STUDENT) VERSION MAY ONLY BE USED TO COMPRESS MODULES THAT WILL NOT BE SOLD OR BARTERED IN ANY WAY. Author: Bitsum Technologies| Date: 20-03-2005 | Size: 914 KB
