Dave Korn asked:

> So, which version of zip did you use to create the archive in the first place?

I got the ZIP file from someone else.  I don't know what program he
used, could have been WINZIP or something else.

I can't control how the ZIP file gets created, but I do expect that
when I unzip a file, that the .exe will actually execute without
having to change permissions!
