There are lots of programs out there for unzipping. If you are using windows Xp it has one built in, if you are using an earlier version winzip.com works fine.

If you must open Virus filled ZIP files Then Please SCAN them with Anti Virus program first.
When you open these files they let out files that become shared on this network So you are in afect, helping to infect all inexperianced users.
Hey take good advice Leave them, only 1% are real even gamblers wont
take them odds.
Peace.

Mickjapa108 is right, leave zipped files alone because most of them contain viruses and other assorted malware. No one with any experience of the P2P network touches them.

But there is a very old saying: "Fools rush in where Angels fear to tread".
