While it is hard to say for sure with what is wrong from what you have said in your message, I will take a guess at what may be wrong. You didn't give you OS but based on your having the PC file - I am assuming that you are using a Windows 95 or newer.
First to clarify some terms. the PC version of Ebase2 is currently distributed by downloaded as a "zipped" or "zip compressed file". This is to reduce the time the download takes as much as possible. Zipping a file has nothing to do with the removable disks sold by Iomega called 'zip disks'. "To unzip" a zipped document requires an unzip program. If you do not have an unzip program, My personal favorite is Zipcetral which you can download for free from: http://zipcentral.iscool.net/ If after installing ZipCentral you still get an error when attempting to open the zipped ebase download file (The ebase zipped file will have a Zipcentral icon once ZCentral is installed) it is likely that the ebase installer you downloaded was somehow damaged in the download. If that is the case, I would suggest downloading again. Once ZipCentral opens the ebase zip double click on the one file in the zip archive and the installer should run.
