KGB archiver. Takes ages to compress though, and then takes ages to decompress
Yeah, the more compressed something is, the longer it will take to decompress. The one Stephen mentioned is best.
You can also vary the compression rate in WinRAR. Smaller files will take longer for you to compress and longer for the person on the other end to decompress.
I'd recommend WinUHA as an alternative to KGB, I chose it when I needed to reduce some movies to fit on a DVD and it worked great.
