Your best bet is PKZIP for UNIX, which is the standard that all .zip
compressions are based on: http://www.pkware.com/downloads/pkzipu251d.html
The downside being that PKZIP is shareware and I believe it requires
registration to create self-extracting zipfiles.

I noticed that zip on linux can create a zipped file with a password. But
does anyone know if it or any other software can make a zip file executable
so that when Win blow users click on it it will automatically open it?
