1. WinZip/WinRar or pkzipc (win32 console application) is fine.
2. see "Standard Zip Encryption" resource
3. I'm using MAX compression - it works fine
4. works for me, see some fixes:

I've integrated resource + two fixes = no any problems for me.

Keep in mind, that if you have
starter.fps/data/* files
AND
starter.fps/data.zip
The engine will look in both - the folder itself and zip file (taking it as a virtual folder).
