computerilliterate....Ok So what happens when you rightclick on the compressed file and chose "Extract all" ?

When I right click on it, "Extract all" is not even on the list! I must be doing something wrong.Maybe I should try to download it to my documents or something instead of my desktop.

 computerilliterate.....  Odd ......could you take a screen shot of your desktop ...showing the file that you can't unzip or open ........and post it here .

To do that ........ go to your desktop and simply push the print screen key .....then click start /Programs/Accessories/system tools/Paint ......then open paint , click edit .......then select paste ...........Now you should have the pic of your sceen ........click file ......then save as ........give it a name and save it to the desktop ....... Now come back to the forum .........  type your message and the use the brouse button to navigate to the pic you saved and attach it .....
It should now appear in your post as an attachment .....

It won't let me attach it to the post. it said the  "Attachment is approximately 1157 kilobytes too large"
    If I am too much trouble, please don't bother with me. I don't want to waste anyone's valuable time with nonsense.
    I'll just muddle through on my own. Eventually, I end up figuring things out for myself anyway.
   Thanks for your help!

You can use shift-print screen to capture only the active window instead of the complete desktop. Then save the image as a .gif or .jpg to make the file size smaller. You can also resize the original image (as long as it remains readable) and resave it to make file size smaller.
