Compress Zip files with Windows Shell API and C#

I have been coding since 4th grade in elementary school back in 1981. I concentrate mainly on Microsoft technologies from the old MSDOS/MSBASIC to coding in VC++ then Visual Basic and now .Net. I try to stay on top of the trends coming from Microsoft such as the Millennium Project, Windows DNA, and my new favorite Windows clustering servers.

I have dabbled in making games in my initial VC++ days, but spent most of the past 10 years working on business apps in VB, C++, and the past 7 years in C#.

I eventually hope to get my own company supporting me so I can concentrate on my real dream of creating clusters of automated robots for use in various hazardous industries.
