Winzip files open with zero contents

When I download a zip file, the box comes up asking if I want to Open or Save. If I choose Open, a new box opens showing the progress of the download. However, when the download completes Winzip opens the file woth zero contents. If I Save the file somewhere rather than Open it everything works properly.

I would assume that the .zip file must be on your local drive before it can be unzipped then. Is there any reason you wish to avoid saving it to your drive?

Ditto...Save the files to your pc would be the thing to do.
