   Sounds like the QWK packet you are trying to open is not a ZIP    
   file...  On the BBS you're getting the QWK packet from, go into    
   the "packet configuration" menu and make sure the archive type is    
   set to "ZIP".   
      
      
      
   ... Would you like to wake up from this dream?
