Adding Zip Search File Type in MOSS 2007

I am a little behind the curve on this. Better late than never.
  1. Get the filter pack here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=60C92A37-719C-4077-B5C6-CAC34F4227CC&displaylang=en
  2. Install it
  3. Set up the item type in the SSP
  4. Set up a new key for .zip in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0\Search\Setup\ContentIndexCommon\Filters\Extension\
  5. Give it a value of {20E823C2-62F3-4638-96BD-90F4F6784EBC}
  6. Restart the search service
That is the shorthand version! This is done for you in SharePoint 2010.
