I did not have any issues with that .zip file or any other ones.

Using IE 7 under Vista RC2.

Re: [IE] IE7 corrupting ZIP files. Firefox does not.

Forgot to mention:

IE7 = XP SP2
IE6 = W2K SP4

I had a hunch the ZIPs will download correctly with IE7, yet I'm trying to figure out why these 2 PCs here at work are corrupting the downloads. Doesn't make sense because the file sizes (down to the byte level) match between downloading from IE7, IE6, and Firefox..

Re: [IE] IE7 corrupting ZIP files. Firefox does not.

IE7 XPSP2 showed a zip icon (file xxx_Utility_v41.zip) but the zip file gave an error trying to open:

End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a Zip file, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part Zip file.

Downloading with Fx 2.0.0.1 I was able to open the zip file and read the pdf file inside.
