Only if you count all the other people as 1%.  :-)  I'm sure
that many of us appreciate your efforts.  I've never had trouble
with Zip.  At the command line, I use Infozip's free version.
Even if you're using the Windows version for creating archives,
if you're not using their proprietary compression techniques,
I can't think of a time when 'infozip' wasn't able to handle them.

Viruses are one thing, spyware is another.  These days with spyware 
everywhere, any executable gives me the willies.  There are plenty 
of evil people stuffing spyware into downloadable executables
you find on the web.
