Actually, winzip will open gz files. However, when I downloaded these files, you will see that most are automatically converted to .ps files (postscript). If you try to use winzip to open this, you will get an invalid archive directory. It appears that the decompression is happening on the server end, and you are getting the raw file. There are various ways to run .ps files on a Windows box, however it is probably easier to just download the pdf versions. I downloaded the abc file and opened it with wordpad no problems. Check your extensions carefully.
