You shouldn't crosspost so blatantly, especially to unrelated newsgroups
like this one, alt.games.battlefield1942 . I would say RAR has the best
compression, consistantly.

What compression format is brings the file size down to its smallest

For what? Are you actively compressing still pictures, video, or
sound, or just text files and such?
Why not download and try a few comressors, such as Winczip and Win RAR
and others.
Note that video/audio/pictures that already are comressed iwith their
own formats (Jpeg, MPEG, MP3), with not compress much with outside
compression systems.

Go with winrar.

Lots of factors influence this. It the file text, music, pictures, video,
programs, ??? If music/video/graphics, does it have to be lossless? How
universal does it need to be?
Zip and its variations are good for most files. The latest 7zip, which is
free, is probably the best of that type so far, with rar being very good
but less popular.
There are the Mpeg and Jpeg families for audio, video, and pictures. Trade
offs of size, speed, and picture quality.
What are you compressing?

Actually there is, but even if there wasn't how does that make it ok to crosspost to multiple groups that have nothing even remotely
to do with the subject?

Depending on filetype, JPEG may work,
or look at 7-zip. or bzip2.

or look at 7-zip. or bzip2.
Recent benchmark on a 4 Mb text file:
- zip "normal" 1000 Kb
- rar "best" 830 Kb
- bzip2 "-9" 750 Kb
Don't know about 7zip though.

Well I posted in the copression news group and I found WinRK. It is really
awesome I turned 34.3mb of assorted text and Image files into 1.32mb it is
really cool. Its not the best, because then best one is in russian but it is
third to the best overall.
