I downloaded some images offline. I know for sure that they do not contain
any viruses or spyware or adware. When I try to unzip using the Windows
Unzip Program it stops me and says there may be harmful files in the images.
It says to bypass the block I needed to go to this link, which told me to
right click the folder and go to the properties of the file. Then it said to
check "unblock" near the bottom of the dialog box. There is no unblock! I
cant find what they are talking about.
 
1. Check that you do not have any Spyware or Malaware on your PC. One
needn't be going off to unspecified linkls in order to open files, unless of
course no application is associated with the file extension. But this isn't
the case with your .zip file.

2. You can always try PKUnZip or WinZip to extract the file, given that you
are 'clean' and no crudware is running.
