Bad, bad decision.

You're still using MAXPIPE!  That's an OS/2 program!  Not to
mention PKZIP2!
I'm also surprised that Maximus invoked MAXPIPE under
Windoze95... Doesn't that mean that you're running the MAX/2
executable?  But then again, it shouldn't run under 95... Now I'm
confused.

Change your archivers to the DOS versions!
