I,ve been testing a lot the last 2 days and these are the test results
(total size) for the files I need to compress:

ZlibEx: 1068 kb
7Zip: 752 kB
Cab: 864 kB

Zip has the best result, but it needs a dll 7za.dll which add 278 kb.
For Cab, the dll size is 59kB and is already included in the
Windows\System directory.

Until I find something better, Cab seems the way to go ..

Maybe you should evaluate bzip2 compression - there are better
compressors, but it is in general better (though slower) than zlib and the
.dcu is only 42k.
