InfoZip doesn't handle passwords (IIRC). But further, I wanna attend you
on the fact that InfoZip is completely free of charge. This is also my
problem with RAR: it requires a registration fee (not UNRAR).

And, if somebody died, his/her work will still remain 'forever' (even InfoZip
is based on PKs work).
