Zip files, how the heck do you unzip 'em?

I really need to know. I tried to download the Red Wolf, but it wouldn't let me because it couldn't read the file. I use ZT2. Help me!

You will need a program such as winzip or winrar.

Well you can download these programs in many places on the web. Try googling one of them and there should be places you can download it.

After you do that, just download the file into the main ZT2 folder (I assume this is for ZT2) then, just click on it, and it should automatically start unzipping them. Then just follow the installing downloads thread.

You don't need any programs, just make sure you are clicking save instead of open when you are downloading. When it's done right click the zipped file, then click extract all. A program should appear that lets you extract the files. All versions of windows has this.
