Please try to be patient- our members are helpful, but we all have lives apart from here, and we do this on a volunteer basis as well. I'm sure that if anyone who's read your post had the solution they would have posted it, but the problem does seem a bit obscure.
One question: if you right-click on the .zips, do you get a "save link as..." type option? Not that that's a fix; I'm just curious.

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.
However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.

In Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer):
In the top menu bar, go to Tools->Folder Options..., File Types. Select ZIP from the list of registered filetypes and then click Advanced.
