Zipping is a process of compacting an ebook or a website or any computer file, so it fits into a smaller package. Why? So it transmits faster across the Internet. We all want things faster today, don’t we? And for those who are paying for their online time, faster downloads are cheaper. Once you’ve downloaded a zipped file, all you need to “unzip” it is a software program called Winzip (or similar). You can download a free evaluation copy from www.winzip.com. As soon as you click on any zip file (such as “ebook.zip”), WinZip will open it for you. If the zip file contains several files, they will be listed. Simply click on any file to open it.
