Thanks, B., for your time and response.

Did you mean it is safe to delete the files I mentioned?

I actually meant that there is a good chance that you could safely get
rid of both the files _and_ ZA.

Here is some reading for starters:

B., Thanks again so much for your response to my last query. At first
glance your link above is both interesting and informative. You seem to
have layed out a logical and easy to understand approach to the firewall
issue for personal computers running in various environments. I promise I
will continue to peruse all the information you've provided. Many, many
thanks!

(By the way, with your and another's responses, I was able to reclaim nearly
300MB of hard drive space by safely deleting most of those .ZIP files I
refered to in my initial post, as well as a large number of .TMP files! Now
your weblink may hold the answer to whether I need a firewall at all!)
