I'm 100% sure 7-Zip comes with zipping capabilities by default. We're talking about 7-Zip 9.20 here, right ? The latest 7-Zip. Just right click the files, "7-Zip", "Add to archive..." and choose Zip instead of LZMA, or something like that.

And oh, have you tried right clicking the files "Send To" and then "Compressed (zipped) Folder" ? It's built into the explorer.

Um, that's because it's a command line tool. Create a .bat or .cmd file (rename the ".txt" extension of a text file) and add to it:

Code:
@echo off
zip.exe -h
pause
Very important that it has a "pause" command at the end. Else it's going to finish very fast, unless you have an 80 MHz processor or something. Haha. Read the help menu on how to use it.
