Just remember the next time you zip a file, your doing the impossible!

 

Not at all, a .ZIP file in most instances removes the junk from the file which is not really needed, look at the compression ratios for various files and you will see what I mean, some are more efficient than others at being zipped. Like a text file can be compressed far better than a JPEG or a BMP file.
