Instead of clicking open, click on "save" so that you can send it to a file so that you can open it with what you're used to open it.

However, chances are that the file you are trying to download is a .rar file. To open those, you need something other than the usual Windows related unzipper.

Some files (mostly from Europe) come in RAR form. It's like Zip but made by a different company. Powerzip (http://www.powerzip.biz/)
can do those as well, so can the one at http://www.altools.net/ , but the WinRar itself is here: http://www.rarlab.com/
