Are there any competitors to PKZIP / PKUNZIP / PKSFX ?

Specifically, I'm looking for software that will compress multiple
files into one archive that can be distributed electronically.

It's essential that the program either generate an executable that can
be run to uncompress it, or that distrubtion rights to the UNcompression
part of the program be allowed for everyone in my company.  It would also
be nice if the program could create directories upon decompression, allowing
the files to go into the right place.

If anyone has infomation on a product that does this on the PC, I'd really
appreciate it!

Also, does anyone have any comments on PKZIP or PKSFX?  How have you found
using them?

Please EMAIL -- I don't always get to read this group.

Thanks!
