This is a known problem with your version of Winzip - the easiest fix would
be to upgrade to a newer version of WinZip or use one of the many other
licensed or free zip utilities.
We simply use the <zip> task that comes with Ant - in our case, Ant 1.3 -
so there's nothing we can realistically do about this. The fact that the
JDK's jar tool and nearly every other zip tool can open our archives fine
seems to say that this is a WinZip problem in specific 6.x versions, and
not a problem with our archives.
You can find more info about Ant, if you want to follow up on this, at
http://jakarta.apache.org/ant/ or you can search the Ant email archives at

P.S. We should probably list this as a FAQ and actually have it in the
posted docs on the website.
