no, i just doublechecked doing that and no saving it as attachment and renaming the file after i have downloaded it does not make it unzippable for me.

I have had two people say that they can't unzip a file of mine that's in the Files section. I was able to download and unzip the file though. I don't understand what the problem is.

what program are you using to zip it up and what program to unzip it? what version if possible, and if you can link to your file and we can test it out.
i'm using winzip 7.0 sr-1 (1285)

The file of mine that some people have had trouble with is CivStats.zip which is attached to the first post in this thread. I believe I originally ziped it using WinZip 8.0. I have certainly downloaded it and unziped it using both WinZip 8.0 and WinZip 8.1. As far as I know, the zip file format hasn't changed for a long time, so even earlier version shouldn't have a problem with it (but you never know).
I did notice that when I downloaded the file using IE 6.0, the default filename was "attachment" instead of "CivStats.zip" as it should have been. I just corrected the filename in the "Save As" dialogue box, and everything was OK.

no, the files that wont unzip dont work with winrar either. yes i renamed attachment to, for example, attachment.zip and no they would not unzip.
natrunner: do you have a problem opening zip files put up by cassembler and m_m_x? did those problems only manifest themselves with winzip and not winrar? which files were those and what version of winrar and winzip do you use?

I haven't been able to download ANY files, or even see the pictures put into threads. None of the things mentioned except downloading from CivFanatics seems to work.

mongoloid, you can't download any of the files, or you can only download them as attachment, or you can download them but not unzip them? which? not seeing the pictures either, hmmm, how fast is your connection and what browser are you using, that is the kind of info that the moderators would want to know.
ps. yeah i downloaded a bunch of stuff from civfanatics the other day, but they didnt have everything i wanted that is hosted on apolyton.

lol I'll have to download zipfix from somewhere else, because the file you uploaded needs to be fixed when I download it. I'll come back later after I've tried pkzipfix.
IT FREAKIN WORKS!!
ok if anyone needs a copy of it, i did the searching for you and it can now be found on my website.
students.washington.edu/mizaq/pkzipfix.exx
save as pkzipfix.exe and then run it from the command window (eg pkzipfix taipei~1.zip) and then it will create a zip file named pkfixed.zip in that same directory which will contain the contents you are trying to get. now I don't have to hunt for **** at civfanatics I can just troll around here for new stuff.
