That was KGB Super Archiver. But it takes too much computing power. It can REALLY compress.

Well consuming too much computing power doesn't matter, I am willing to wait
But i tried, and results come just like other software (Winrar or Winzip)... Or may be you can tell us the step by step procedure..That would be great help..

KGB 10MB vista image is a famous net fraud just like those nigerian emails.a long time ago i have searched & found out that this much compression violates the mathematical laws relating to compression(something like violation of 1st law of thermodynamics).one of the famous lines of those who claimed KGB's compression was that you just need a looooo...ng time to achieve this compression but as i said no matter what you do you can not violate the basic laws of maths or for that matter any science subject.

@just4kix

Can you please share any good compressed file that others can decompress using KGB and check.

So how much did you able to compress?

you all are not listening to me.as i said it's impossible to compress 1GB to 10MB because it violates a basic maths law.2+2 can't be 5.

Oh not much i just tried some 5mb pics and it made around 3.5 i think, now kept it for compressing 300 MB to maximum compression will update as soon as it finishes
