Mansfield, Conn. and Ottawa - August 1, 2006
WinZip Computing, now part of Corel Corporation (NASDAQ:CREL - News; TSX:CRE - News), announced today that WinZip 10.0 won the 2006 Shareware Industry Award (SIA) for Best Overall Utility.

"We are very honored to receive this award," says Edwin Siebesma, president of WinZip Computing. "Our small team of developers takes a lot of pride in our product, and they work very hard to create features that will help make our users' lives just a little bit easier. And, as we become part of a larger organization, it's nice to know that the shareware industry recognizes the fact that WinZip® remains loyal to its shareware roots."

WinZip® is a powerful and easy-to-use compression utility that quickly zips and unzips your files to conserve disk space and greatly reduce email transmission time. The most recent version, WinZip 10.0, introduces Standard and Pro feature sets for the first time ever. WinZip 10.0 Standard offers powerful new compression technology that creates even smaller Zip files. And the new Explorer-style view makes it easier to work with complex, multi-folder Zip files.

WinZip 10.0 Pro adds the WinZip® Job Wizard, a powerful tool that offers predefined data backup jobs, the ability to customize and schedule zipping tasks, and FTP-upload functionality. WinZip 10.0 Pro also offers the ability to zip and burn directly to CDs/DVDs.
