besides WinZip, Windows XP has an inbuilt utility that will unzip files to a 
temporary folder when you open them.  From there, you can move the files to 
wherever you like.  there's also a free utility called 7zip, which, as its 
name implies, can unzip several different kinds of zipped format including 
.zip itself.  It can be downloaded from www.whitestick.co.uk/ -- which is a 
very handy and useful site.

I am no expert  but I get zipped files from the national talking newspapers
and I had to download a software called winzip 11.0. There is a free version
available but I downloaded a version that I paid 29euro for it.
It is fairly straight forward to unsip a file when you have this software
and when I set it up it opened the zipped file into a folder called unzipped
in my documents. Any time I now go to open a zipped file now the winzip
software comes up on the screen and I just have to click on the next button
a few times and the file is sent to my unzipped folder.
I dont know if you can understand these instructions or not as I said I am
no expert.
