I have even hit cases where Windows flat out blocks me from opening a zip file. I believe XP SP2 added some security functionality [1] that, depending on how the zip file is procured, blocks one from opening the file. It just throws the error: "Windows has blocked access to this file". Regards, -- Meador [1] http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;883260
