This sounds neat but I will have to check it carefull on account of
what I once came across:
I was speaking to a user who installed something which put an entry
into the context menu and they told me that it must have been very
powerful software because "it changed the right-click menu of every
single file on the computer!"
Errr, what can you say to that? I just made my excuses and left.
So, the department manager might think that anything I supply which
changes the context menu has irretrieveably corrupted every single
file on one of his PCs!

Whatever happened to the no-install idea of the old DOS Winzip line
command, UNZIP, where you specified an archive file and that was it -
the archive file was unzipped.
