zipping with asp

I want to build a site for downloading files. The filenames all begin with
numeric digits followed by text characters including commas, apostrophes,
etc. It's important that the text remains on the end user's level. So, I
want to zip and rename each zip to the original first 5 digits.

Does anyone know of any ASP component or process that will do that?

thanks!

Why do you believe that zipping is the answer to this particular problem?

Do the filenames contain the / character?
How about : or \?

thanks!
