Right click on the file, click Properties, on the General tab, click the Advanced button, Check mark "compress contents...", click OK, then OK again.

Yes, chuck is right but make sure that the file you are about to compress is not encrypted or it will cause problems (espically when pulling off a floppy).
P.S. Jpeg and Gif are already compressed and dont like to be recompressed and put on floppy.
P.S.S. while I have gave the warning the file sometimes will compress and uncompress correctly but play carefully they will not always be as they were before when uncompressed. (all is based on jpeg, gif, and encrypted files).

Or you can just right click the file or folder and then choose "send to" and "compressed (zip) folder".
