This is a resend of something I think I sent to the wrong place. It's been revised to note that long file names are recognized: The WinZip product from Nico Mak Computing, Inc (http://www.winzip.com) is perfectly capable of unzipping tar, zip, gz, tgz, gzip and Z unix compressed files. It understands long file names and directory hierarchies, and runs on both Win95 and Win NT. Winzip is freely downloadable for a 30 day evaluation. I'm not affiliated with them, it's just a great product. A win zip is entirely unnecessary and is generally bigger then the corresponding tgz file thus taking longer to download. I would MUCH rather have the windows make files thanks.
