Glossary
zipped file A file that has been
squeezed to a smaller size by
compression software, such as
WinZip. An archive (group of
related files that are zipped
together) can be transmitted as
an e-mail attachment much
faster than individual files. An
archive takes up less storage
space on your disk. It can be
identified by the file extension
.zip. An archive contains a
self-extracting program with the
file extension .exe (for
executable). Double-click the
executable file, and a wizard
guides you through the process
of unzipping the files.
