Thanks for your response. I have read up on the pros and cons of re-JARring unJARred 
files. The 
issue apparently is that running the raw unJARred files results in a performance 
penalty of the 
Netscape app, and that's why I'd like to re-JAR them. Also, it's much easier to manage 
since all 
the files are lumped into a single file.

I'm using Win-98SE, so I can't use the advise you have provided. It's frustrating that 
Win-Zip 
8.0 unpacks JAR files, but cannot repack them. Any other ideas or any utilities that 
can re-JAR 
files?
