ZipGenius supports more than 20 file format for compression and encoding. OpenOffice documents, WinAMP and Windows Media Player skins can be treated as common zip files, plus they can be "optimized" to gain some extra compression. Even the new "7-zip" format is supported. ZipGenius can also build slideshows if ZG Album module is installed. ZG GUI has been redesigned in order to make it easier to use and now it offers a "XP-like" sidebar for common task, folder structure browsing and other advanced actions. New MultiOpen feature allows to open more than one archive at once. New feature "SmartExtract" allows to extract certain file types to specific folders (ex.: .JPG will go to "My Pictures" under WinXP). New CZIP 2.1 encryption format, so ZG can create even Self-Decrypting Archives (SDA) when you need to send a CZIP file to someone (they look like encrypted executable files). The ftp client, FTPGenius 2003, is also included in this edition. This and much more in ZG 5. Added support to ZIP64 and SQX formats.
