This issue is keep creeping up and who knows how many users got stuck as a result or unzipped the files into the xcsoardata directory with some strange results. I thought this was already corrected, but if there is truly no way to fix that, at least we should have a comment near the link clarifying to save it as xcm. You may be surprised, but Internet explorer is still quiet popular ;)
