You probably have a worm.

Try the easy fix mentioned at the end of point 2 here, it's worked for a lot of people.

Always make sure that you're using a good AV program. Keep it updated & use it to scan files that you've downloaded before you open them.

I just had a try, I didn't have an 'extract all' option either but just unzipping/extracting to the BFU folder seemed fine...if you're using Winzip, unzip the file to the BFU folder you created in C drive.

If you're using WinRAR, extract the folder to that same BFU folder.
