I use Ulead smartsave, which I got free when I registered Ulead Photoexplorer. The smartsaver works as a PhotoShop plugg-in, but also integrates with Windows Explorer. Just right click a graphical file, and you can save it using smartsaver, into a JPG, GIF or PNG. It shows a part of the original, and the same part of the file after the compression, so you can play with the compression variables. You also see what the file size will be after saving, there are a lot of options available, not only for the compression, but also for resampling etc. This is the tool I use for the PUG entries as well, I am very happy with it.
