    This is about the best free (open source) archive program out there. Very simple interface, and supports many different flavors of archive files.

    @ Artem Tashkinov - I agree
    multimedia compression is needed
    UI shortcuts not for me, cause I work only in ;p

    nice will be seeing some new UI, not too flashy, but UI from 95 isnt in my option good for program in 2010 year...

    and adding support for more extension is good IMO only when they are used

    IMO Igor is slowly moving in a wrong direction, instead of implementing much more needed features like multimedia compression and UI keyboard shortcuts he keeps adding new RO support for more formats.

    7-Zip is an archiver, first of all.

    Just to say this: enough about the GUI!!!!! It's simple and easy to use, plus imho it looks good! This is not a media program or a web browser you'll be looking at for long, its a compression tool! And the best one, the way I see it.
