Exepack is a program that is supplied with all of the languages
that I have seen from Microsoft.  It is a compression utility
that deletes sequences of identical characters from an executable 
file.  It also optimizes the relocation table that can also make
execution time faster.  I have tried it out on a number of large
programs (200 K range) and it has worked just fine (and saved up
to 15 K per file).  If you can get a copy try it out.
