Zipping directory on hosted server?

    Anybody know of a way to zip the contents of a directory on a hosted server? I'm moving hosts and one of my directories is huge, so I'm wondering if there's a way to zip it up before I transfer it to the new server. Btw, this is on a windows server and I can only run classic ASP on this account.

    Suggestions or ideas?

    I can't think of any way to do it other than contact the host and ask them to do it for you.

    There wasn't a way to do it with that host. However, the new host uses cpanel and there is a way to zip and unzip via the file manager utility - just fyi for everyone.
