Default Downloading Zipped Games

How come after I download a zipped game and then I extract it, and I click on the setup it either says corrupt file or doesn't even open at all?

Are you scanning these files with your AV program before you open them? I hope so

.zip & exe are things to be very careful with, see this info on virus probs

Even if your .zip is clean, there's no guarantee it's going to work. Many games will need a CD or activation code to run. You're probably better off buying the game

THanks these information have been very helpful, but just one more thing. When you saiddownload the whole setp file and not the zipped one,do you mean that none of the zipped ones work? Cause that is what I discovered
