<p>Created page with &quot;{{FormatInfo |formattype=electronic |subcat=Archiving |extensions={{ext|kgb}} |released=2006 }} The &#039;&#039;&#039;KGB Archiver&#039;&#039;&#039; is an archiving and compression program for MS Windows ...&quot;</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{FormatInfo<br /> |formattype=electronic<br /> |subcat=Archiving<br /> |extensions={{ext|kgb}}<br /> |released=2006<br /> }}<br /> <br /> The '''KGB Archiver''' is an archiving and compression program for MS Windows and Unix-like systems. The program supports the [[ZIP]] format, but also has its own native KGB format which is based on the algorithm of [[PAQ|PAQ6]]. This format is designed for high compression rather than speed of compression or decompression.<br /> <br /> It doesn't appear to spy on you like its namesake in the old Soviet Union.<br /> <br /> There hasn't been any update to it in a number of years now, and its official website is no longer up.<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> * [[Wikipedia:KGB Archiver|Wikipedia article]]<br /> * [http://sourceforge.net/projects/kgbarchiver/ SourceForge project]</div>
