ZIP folders won't work...

For some reason, my computer won't open ZIP folders or extract them. Specifically, I can't download Hijack This, because it comes in a ZIP folder.

When I try to access a ZIP folder, it tells me "The Compressed (zipped) Folder is invalid or corrupted." If I try to extract from the folder, it returns the error "No files to extract." I'm running Windows XP, and I'm the admin and only user, if that helps. Also, this is even happening on old ZIP folders that worked in the past, not just on Hijack This.

Edit: winrar worked, though it's still weird that the built-in tool worked for a while and then didn't...

    Are you using XP's built-in zip tool? If so, try WinRAR and see if that will work.
