WinZip (www.winzip.com or just "Copy to Compressed Folder" in Windows XP.
But 2GB is the upper limit of an Access database, so if it's ever going to
get any bigger, you need to move to a server database such as SQL Server,
ASAP.

Have you compacted your database? That would reduce the
size.

Compacting would help you too, by removing all the junk that adds up.

MSDE has a 2GB limit, too.
