Favorite ZIP/RAR application?
AbteriX:
The only drawback of winrar occurs when I have to use a PC where it is not installed, and there is no "official" portable version.

I'm a fan of PowerArchiver. For some reason WinRAR's interface didn't click with me, and back when I bought PA, 7Zip didn't have the encryption capability I needed (I think that now it might).
Lifetime upgrades for personal licenses. Fantastic support in the forums.
Note that they're beta-testing PA 2011 right now, and they're about to change the feature mix for standard/pro/toolbox (toolbox is the new 'kitchen sink' package of features). For 2011 the 'Pro' version will miss some features that are in the 2010 Pro version (those features are moving to the Toolbox package). However, if you have a 2010 Pro license, you'll be upgraded to a '2011 Pro Legacy' license that keeps those features intact - essentially you'll get a 2011 Toolbox license without the BitDefender AV license that they're bundling in Toolbox for some reason (which I personally have no need for anyway).

I assume that the standard upgrade policy also applies to the Ashampoo offer, but you might want to double check.

-I don't think it does; the license box is stamped "Ashampoo Version".
But I have just now written the company and asked.
