Thank you for your answer.
I use MSN messenger. I always receive these un zipped files in a chat
windows. I can accept it but when I want to open em it says this : Windows
found that this files is potentially harmful. To help protect your computer,
Windows has blocked access to this File. And OK to click. Now I need to know
where that files is and how to retrieve it. Must be somewhere in my PC...
Thank you
