7-zip is awesome, compresses much better than WinRAR (although WinRAR takes less time to compress).

Winrar is what i use. Its fast and i am addicted to it

7-Zip all the way. It is fast and has great compression engine.. Just Love it

7-Zip

WinRAR [ easiest interface ]

But i also use7-Zip extensively. Especially for extracting files.

One might say 7z compressed better but i've tested , results vary , sometimes 7z compressed more than RAR , sometimes less/

not using any compression software for sometime. using the windows default one these days.

I use WinRaR

I am currently using 7-zip.
I like it mostly because it's an open source product. Before I knew this fact, I had used WinRAR and WinZip a lot of times.

I usually use winrar.But when it comes to extracting uncommon file types i use IZarch.

+1 for WinRar. Though I have heard much about 7-zip, but I'm addicted to WinRar, so can't change. If need extreme compression, Uharc ftw.

I used IZArch but for some time I am using 7-zip. It's simple, small, and does it's job efficiently.

Addicted to winrar. Feel odd when see another icon for zip/rar/etc.. files other than WinRAR.

Use 7zip with winrar icons. Lol. WinRAR is not free is it?

even I use winrar - still using version 3.80 -It's stable , easy to use, feature rich and feels good

Another one I use is ( for extracting files only ) Universal Extractor - it's very powerful and can even extract installer files and free to use

its not free but..

7 Zip all the way for CR, but Winrar interface is nice and a wider range of options, useful for noob users.

LOL..............

Look no more than 7zip.

Use WinRAR as primary compressor.
But, it's becomes ugly, once the 30-day trial message starts to pop!!

Sigh. Good night thread.
