Default unzipping MAC files

I just bought Zoe's new kit b/c I just had to have it but I can NEVER get MAC folders to unzip properly. I followed Robin's instructions that she posted in the forums but the folder ends up empty...well it has two documents that can't be opened in them. This is so frustrating!!! I love Zoe's designs but have always had to skip them b/c I can't get them to extract.

What do you guys use to extract?????

I think you can just double click on the zip folder and then right click on the NON MAC file and copy it to where ever you would usually un zip your folders too!!!

ETA:Well I did that using XP...not sure if it will work using Vista!!!

I don't know - I have XP and just use winzip to open, and I get both the MAC folder and the regular folder, and just delete the MAC folder.

I have Vista. I just double click on the zip and then drag the files where I want them.

I used to be able to unzip Mac files just fine with Windows Vista and then all of a sudden it stopped working, so I had to download Stuff It and that is what I now use for the Mac files.
