I've read the link you gave. Thanks. However, still can't compress the file. I've even tried reinstalling minimo and upx4ppc. I follow the steps that you guys gave me as well as the installation instructions. I choose the .exe file for minimo, maximum compression and then start. The message pops up saying it will take 1 to 5 minutes and asking if I wish to continue. I choose yes. It then begins and within 1 second it pops up saying the file is done. original file size 7.17 and final size 7.17. So far all I've managed to do is make myself feel pretty stupid. The answer will probably be so obvious it's going to hurt.
