RESOLVED: Can't open files in zipped folder

    I received an email today with a few zipped folders on it and when I try to open the files (Word Documents) from the zipped folders I get the following message:

    Windows could not complete the extraction. The destination file could not be created.

    Does anyone know what the problem is and how I could fix it?

    I'm using Windows Vista and Word 2007 and the folders are password protected if that makes any difference?

    That doesn't work either. When I try and extract the files I get an: Error 0x80004005: Unspecified error message.

    I'm downloading 7-Zip now, I'll see if I have any success with that.

    Thanks
