    umm, yes it does.

    zipping, raring, whatever i assume <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Those exe's are for the most part self extracting archives already. Zipping them won't make them significanlty smaller.

    i rar'd my hl.exe, got to under .5 of original size, zip makes it about .75 original.

    whether were actually talking about the same thing remains to be seen.

    I'm not talking about your average program executable like the hl.exe but about installer exe's like the ns_install_v1.exe. Those are already compressed files, zipping or rar'ing them again wont make much of a difference.
