Once in a while someone mentions zipped files. If you have many zipped files, you might wish to look at the program ZipMagic. ZipMagic makes your computer “think” that zipped files are folders. You just double click on the folder and it opens up showing the files you had zipped up. You can turn it on or off as needed. Note, however, that some server software does not work with it. In this case, the zip files can still be used, but they don’t look like folders, but rather look like what they really are—zip files.

The search software I’ve used also “perceives” a zip file as a folder and so can search the files inside it.
