Problems with opening the turns Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Ever since I transferred onto my new laptop, I've been unable to open any of the turns General Tacitus has been posting. The file downloads fine, but when I open the zip file there is nothing inside. This applies to all turns he has sent (well, at least the two or so others I have tried from a few months back). I also cannot open the Hive's turns, but I can open Drogue's and the Pirates' turns. Does anybody know what's going on?

Different winzip version?

Edit: Yes, that might be a very likely possibility. I now seem to remember I had problems as well opening GT's turns while he was Commissioner in the previous ACDG. I then downloaded the latest winzip and it all worked fine again.

Edit2: If the problem would be you having an old winzip version, and GT a new, that doesn't explain why (so I presume) you were able to open my zipped turns, which were zipped using the latest version...

Enter the AD-FREE zone

I'm using the built-in winzip extractor in Win XP Professional (haven't had a chance to upgrade yet). Would this be the problem?

Hmm. That's odd. If I recall correctly at least, I had problems opening GT's winzip file using the winzip of my Windows ME partition, but didn't have any problems with the standard Windows XP winzip. So if Winzip isn't the problem, I really don't know what could be.

Btw, does the file below work? I unzipped and rezipped the turn using Windows XP winzip.

Alright... I've finally got around to dowloading WinRAR, and can open the turns now. Expect orders soon.
