Just got word that our good friends over at Savagenews.com have snagged WinZip 9.0 Beta 2 build 5611.

Improvements in WinZip 9.0 concentrate on its core functionality: compression, capacity, and a new, advanced data encryption capability. Using WinZip 9.0, you can compress more data, compress it better, and protect your sensitive documents with far greater security.
