A Mac user might not know about zip files. However, a Mac user would almost certainly have Stuffit's tools, and just dropping the file on Expander would open it no matter if it was .zip, .sit, .rar or whatever.

Now a bad zip will be empty when it opens because it is missing a piece of data, or the transmission will be interrupted, or a gremlin on the hyperlink chewed on a packet before spitting it out. I've got a few bad zips... and those you should know about. I may have stashed them in a folder for prying open later. Stuffit used to be from Aladdin, but they changed their name to allume... and are the distributers for Poser. You can get the expander free.
