Faster Data Transfer and Save More Disk Space
By leveraging state-of-the-art compression methods (PPMd and bzip2), WinZip 10.0 boasts more powerful compression that creates smaller Zip files. Not only does this allow you to transfer data faster than ever, it saves valuable disk space. Learn more and download WinZip 10.0 Beta now at http://www.winzip.com/betawz.cgi?em100b

Improved File Management
10.0's new Explorer-style view makes it much easier to work with complex, multi-folder hierarchies. This tree-structured view of your Zip files allows you to drill down with a few simple clicks to locate files quickly. What’s more, you can add files directly to new or existing folders, and quickly extract files, simply by utilizing our drag and drop feature.

WinZip 10.0 Pro's 'Job Wizard' Saves Time By Automating Repetitive Tasks
In addition to the features discussed above, WinZip 10.0 Pro (a special version with additional functionality) features the 'WinZip Job Wizard', a completely new and powerful tool. The WinZip Job Wizard allows you to create Zip "Jobs" that identify the "what, where, when, and how" of virtually any repetitive zipping task. Once you've created a job, you can run it simply by clicking an icon on your desktop, or schedule it to run automatically.

WinZip 10.0 Pro also allows you to create Zip files directly on CDs, eliminating the need to zip to your hard disk and then transfer the Zip files to CD. Large Zip files will automatically span multiple CDs, if necessary. Learn more and download WinZip 10.0 Beta now at http://www.winzip.com/betawz.cgi?em100b
