Hmm... I'm using WinZip - 30 day trial version (evaluation period exceeded by 444 day(s) and it works. Maybe file is damaged or not full downloaded.

What zip are you trying to extract, a downloaded map?

Damn! Sorry! Fatal error! :) I'm using WinAce. I think it's best packer/unpacker.

Errors in zip's with maps are quite usual. Especially if you downloading maps from places like MAD. Sometimes they are caused by errors during transfer of the archive, sometimes source files themselves contain errors.
To prevent such errors add repair info (2-5% will be enough)  to archives when packing them.

WinRAR ftw!
