Hold down the Shift key, then right-click a ZIP file and select "Open With
....". Select the proper program to open them with. That will fix things
up.

To access the Open With... box in Windows 98:
1)Single click on the file you want to change to
highlight it.
2) Hold down the left Shift key on your keyboard, and
right click on the file.
3) The option for the open with menu should be in the
menu amongst all the usual options.
