Compressing - Zipping files in vb or javascript in asp file

Does anyone know if the new Windows 2003 built-in .zip
compressor/decompressor is available to scripting? If so, can you kindly
point me in the right direction? I've searched and searched MSDN and can't
find a damn thing. TIA.

Thank you. The link is helpful. I'm surprised that MS didn't provide an
ActiveX API for the built-in zipping functionality of Windows 2003.
