That's exactly what I told her to do.

I've had a copy of WinZip for many years. I paid for it about three computers ago, but the copy I have now (8.0) always reminds me it's for evaluation purposes only, and as long as I hit the "I agree" button, I can keep using it. It never seems to expire.

I also sent her Download.com lists of other compression utilities, including a bunch that are freeware.

No word back from her yet (she's got a three-year-old who keeps her pretty busy), but I'll let you know what happens.
