CORS Faq 33

33. I have experienced some trouble retrieving gzip compressed files from your site. I download it but when winzip runs it says it is not in gzip format. Any ideas?

When I click on the file that is online and gzipped, my PC responds with the program "Winzip" and opens it up. When I then save it to my disk, it saves it WITH the .gz extension. What I should have done it save it with another name and not let the PC decide for me.

For example, I download gait1230.99o.gz , Winzip opens it then asks me to save it to disk.... Do you want to save file gait1230.99o.gz? I should save it as gait1230.99o (since it is already uncompressed). If I save it with the .gz ext. Winzip tries to unzip a file that is already unzipped....
