How to zip and fetch a file remotely

My company has a machine in a remote location. The application we use creates log files in a /log folder on disk. We have a vpn connection to the machine, however it is quite slow.
Now and then I need, or get asked to download the log files from the machine.
To increase speed, I'd like to zip the files before sending.

Right now i have to do this Via vnc, using 'send to' -> .zip. I can then use windows explorer to copy the file and paste it in a local folder.

Can i however use windows explorer to zip the file without me having to go through VNC to zip the file? If i use the same step as above to zip the file, it seems like windows will download the files locally, then zip them and then place them back in a .zip on the remote machine. This is very slow.
