No, there is nothing native in 'classic' ASP. Third-party it is.

As Jason said, no, there is nothing built in. You can purchase the Winzip
command line add-on (http://www.winzip.com/downcl.htm) for Winzip
(http://www.winzip.com/), "shell out" and execute the commands for the
command line add-on to zip files.

sCommand = "wzzip D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\htmlfiles.zip
D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\*.htm"
Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
oShell.Run sCommand, , True
Set oShell = Nothing
Response.Write "<a href=""htmlfiles.zip"">Download zip file</a>"
%>
