WinZip (and apparently those WinZip System Tools products I'd never heard
of before now) are owned by Corel. At one point, this was a major player in
the software world, with CorelDraw and WordPerfect being their flagship
products. Ottawa's hockey team even played at the Corel Center. Now they
are mostly just a conglomeration of purchased software. They own WinZip,
Roxio and Parallels (run Windows on a Mac) among a few other smaller
software brands. Anyway, they are definitely legit. I mean, other than
being Canadian. :D

Cleverbridge is just an ecommerce company. Did you find the link to reach
out to Corel directly? System Utilities Suite - Contact Support
