Does anyone know how to disable Vista's inbuilt zip file support so that
they display as ordinary files?

I want to disable Vista's inbuilt support of zip files so that they don't
display as pseudo-folders but as an ordinary file of type "xxxxx.zip".
I'll then use WinZip to do all the necessary extracting etc.
You could do this in WinXP by unregistering the zipfldr.dll, but this
doesn't work in Vista.
folders when being displayed in explorer, they are displayed as files as one
would expect.
I am about to file a bug report about some
strange 'folder access denied' errors when trying to zip files from a
read-only network share, and I'm wondering if that's related to the way
Vista
is treating zip files (and that it may get fixed).
I guess I'll file the report anyways just in case, but the handling of zip
files is definitely a bit odd in Vista.
