SharePoint Zip allows users to download multiple files from and upload multiple files to SharePoint as a single Zip file. This saves both user time and network bandwidth, and has many applications from content publishing, to data backup, to offline file access. The 2.0 (supported) version of SharePoint Zip adds advanced capabilities beyond those available with the 1.2 version (free).
