 * Nope. Just tested the download and they open up fine in Winzip. What zip tool,
   browser and OS are you using?

 * The files aren’t corrupted. They more than likely were damaged in the download.
 * Delete what you have and download them again.

 * I have Winzip 9.0 and Winrar Windows XP and IE 5.0, on the zip link it downloads
   144kb and then stops, by the tar it stops at 255kb.
 * do you have any mirrors?

 * Try a different browser. I am having no difficulties using Firefox.

 * At the time Giuna was posting I have also tried several times the download – 
   exactly in the same way, same browser as always! – and it didn’t work. Winzip
   was claiming “not a valid archive”. So there was something going on.
