In this case, use the Windows backup that came with Windows. Works well
enough for that kind of use.

Actually, we use windows backup once in a while here...it's a good way
to get a larger-than-1.4-meg-but-all-I-have-is-a-floppy file
sneakernetted to someone off the network, since we're guaranteed that
anyone with Win95/98'll have a compatible program, which you can't
sayfor most of the other solutions here, and it's free, unlike PKZip.
