Compress/Decompress Question

I have a situation where I will be getting compressed files downloaed from
multiple web services and web sites. Most of these files will contain XML.
I will need to uncompress these files, prior to loading the data into a
database table.

The only .NET documentation I can find to automate the decompression process
refers to the PassportIdentity.Compress method and/or the LZexpand.dll.

Are these my only options? Using these technologies to just unzip a file
makes me feel like I'm going yam hunting with a shotgun.
