Umm..hello..
ACE was not, and is not shortlived.
It is a very good compression standard that is still widely used in
various...
umm..circles on the internet.
THey are up to WinACE 2.0 now which provides even better protection, and the
client is quite pretty too!
^_^
It handles ZIP,RAR,And a host of others..integrates very well with Explorer.
You can even select several .zip files and extract them all at once to a
directory if you so desire.
There is also a command line utility that can be used like PKZIP.exe

ARJ/JAR fell into disuse years ago (as LHARC did before it), RAR superseded
it in that vein of compression utils.
Either way though, handing a LHZ, ARJ, RAR, etc. (or the shortlived ACE) to
your average windows user is like handing a gzipped tarball to a Mac user..
if they even did know how to use it they probably wouldn't bother to install
the utility to decompress it.
The problem here is that most consumers will not know what to with an ARJ
file.
