Wideawake,
Are you using the latest version of UPX?

Compressing things like ppt.exe would gave you tons of room, assuming the compression works, of course. There are all versions of custom roms on this site UPXed/nonUPXed, tools, 3.x aku, etc. I didn't know if you ever used Buzz's site for information or tools.
