I have the same problem and get the same error message.  There doesn't seem
to be any alternative to unpacking the software directly from the package in
which it came.  I tried to use win zip and it replied that it wasn't a valid
zip file.

How hid you want to unpack the file? Did you use a software like 7-zip,
Winzip or something else? Or did you just a double-click on the file? 
Which version of Windows are you using? Win95, 98, ME, 2000 or XP?

I don't know what you're doing wrong. But try the following: 
Unpack the file with 7-zip (it's a cost free software) and save the
files in a directory, you want. After saving the files, there should be
a file called install.exe or setup.exe (I'm not sure, I'm using linux),
click on this file an the installation should start. 

When you're using an anti-virus software, please turn it off during the
installation process. After finishing the installation, you can turn it
on again.
