You can (also) get PKZ110.EXE or its Euroversion PKZ110EU.EXE at
pratically any well-stocked BBS and anonymous ftp site ours
included.  Furthermore, there is an Unix version of UNzip (ZIP for
Unix is at a beta test phase).  At uwasa.fi (Vaasa, Finland)
anonymous ftp site the files are /pc/pd2/pkz110eu.exe and
/unix/ts/unzip401.tar.Z.  The former is self extracting.  The
instructions for the latter are in /unix/ts/0news-u.
