: Where can I get a copy of PKZIPFIX (and of the latest PKZIP and PKUNZIP)?

At simtel mirror sites such as oak.oakland.edu (all three are included in the
package).  Be aware that pkzipfix cannot work magic.  If you get a bad ZIP
file by ftp, chances are you or someone else forgot to say binary and it is
damaged beyond repair.  All that pkzipfix does is to scan through the file
looking for local headers and to rewrite a valid central directory at the end
of the zip file.  This allows partial recovery if a section of the zip file
has been clobbered or if the zip file is truncated.
