The older version of shp2kml, a full-featured stand-alone shapefile to KML converter, expired not too long ago, but version 2.0 is now out. Not any substantial changes in functionality from earlier versions, which pretty much had most of the functionality you might want, but it seems to handle some problematical large shapefiles better than it used to.
Addendum: The Virtual Earth blog reviews using the program, and importing the results into a Live Search Maps Collection .

Hi Leszek
Again a wonderful tip from you. I think the shp to kml converter has changed quite a bit, it has become more flexible and easy to use in determining the display of the kml file. Zonum has done a wonderful job. Now I am waiting for the same software for converting MapInfo tab files :-)
Cheers
