Description rtobyr 2008-09-04 00:10:07 UTC 
Zip Genius in particular causes error: "Invalid size or check sum of file or 
unsupported compression format - Native error: 00008. File processing error, 
possibly disk is full. [Abort|Retry|Ignore]" when right-clicking on any OOo 
installer file from 2.2.1-3.0 beta 2. In summary, Zip Genius scans every file 
that you right-click for compression and other info. Something about OOo's 
compression technique since version 2.2.1 is funky, causing Zip Genius to throw 
up this error when trying to decide whether to show you a Zip Genius item in the 
right-click context menu. Perhaps the OOo team ought to consider the 
professional courtesy of revising their compression techniques for the Windows 
installer so as to improve compatibility with Windows archiving utilities.

And this is not a defect in 'Zip Genius'?

We have another Issue 76010for this problem. 
I also see this problem with my ZG56, but indeed it seems to be a ZG6 problem,
because I also see that message with some other big size installer files, for
example "F-Secure 2008", "F-Secure 2008", "EB_Full_2.2.2.11_1031_de.exe"
("Engineering Base"). But can we know? May be, OOo and these few other
installers really are corrupted in a special way?

I will try to contact ZG developers.

Unfortunately I did not get any answer from ZG (info@zipgenius.it). Any Idea how
we can contect ZG?

For first, DUP!
