Free self extract software for windows

SAHA Self Extract 1 is regarded as a convenient as well as useful tool that is designed to allow you to create protect self-extracting EXE. All data file, picture, video, and master EXE is hide and protected.

Requirements: Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP/2003 Server/Vista.

Create self-extracting ZIP files optionally with unbreakable AES encryption.
The ChilkatZip Self-Extractor can safely encrypt the contents of your ZIP file with 128, 192, or 256-bit AES Encryption
To unzip, a user must provide the same password that was used when creating the self-extracting EXE. AES encryption is much stronger than standard ZIP encryption, which is regarded by security experts as being unsecure.
Chilkats streaming compression and encryption technology allows the ChilkatZip Self-Extractor to create an EXE from any size ZIP file.
The streaming compression and decryption technology also ensures that it will be possible to unzip the archive on your end-user's computer, even if that computer has very little memory.
