Unzip, Preview and Scan Compressed Files Online

Posted by rajivvishwa On September - 1 - 2010

WobZIP is a free online tool that allows you to uncompress your files online. It displays the list of files present in that zip file and it allows you to download only the needed files from the archive . If you get hold of any suspicious zip file, instead of downloading to your PC and extracting it to view the contents, you can enter the file URL in WobZip to ensure that its free from any executables. This also has an antivirus scanner which scans the files in the zip on the fly during decompression.
