IISxpress (IIS Compression)

'Ran across this great little freebie (free for personal use anyway) from Ripcord Software tonight while searching for an IIS Compression product.

I just needed something simple to speed up a little personal/test site (Windows XP) I have running with only 256k upstream. I didn't need the control offered by commercial products such as HttpZip, etc - nor was I going to spend the money.

The compression ratio seems pretty decent so far - generally in the 70ish-% range.

All in all, IISxpress suits my needs perfectly. This will definitely be added to my favorite freebies list.
