Try a stand alone zip program.

I did a clean install of Windows a week ago to get rid of certain unwanted
programs and before that I did a backup of my photos. It's easy in XP so I
just used the built-in zip-tool and zipped them up and moved them to
another
harddrive before formatting and re-installing.
When I later tried to unzip the file I ran into trouble. It was corrupt or
something. After a lot of searching and trying and thinking I think I know
where the problem is. The file is too large. Apparently the zip-format is
can
only work with files up to 4Gig and I think my photos were somewhat over
that
limit.
Why am I allowed to create a zip-file that is too large? And more
importantly, how do I get my pictures back?
