I can't figure out why the REZIP utility that comes with PKZIP won't work. I placed PKZIP.EXE, PKUNZIP.EXE, and REZIP.EXE in a subdirectory in the PATH. When I try to use REZIP to re-pack any files, I get the message: DOS setblock error before EXEC call Am I doing something wrong?

I ftp'ed pkzip102 from simtel 20, I had a couple of zip files I needed/wanted to repack to I tried it out. Boy what a saveing in space ;-) Any way I had no problem with REZIP except a repacking utility SHOULD NOT CHANGE THE SCREEN INTENSITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes I am disappointed that a repacking utility, messes up my screen intensity Maybe I am wrong, but REZIP should Leave the screen intensity alone ( I don't care what it does when it runs just don't leave the screen intensity the why it found it when it started!)
