Hi David,

how do i unzip a file without downloading winzip.

Double-click it, WinXP has built in support for .zip files.

2)- what is a compressed file?

Any file that is compacted to save disk space, a zip file is just one
example.

3)- i keep getting a blue screen and the computer keeps
restarting, what could be the problem? it says "sys32"

Is that all it says? The complete text of the error message will likely lead
to a better solution. Offhand though, I'd say you were infected with a
trojan. Update your AV software and run a full system scan.
