I'm having trouble opening .gz compressed file extentions
using the internal unzip .dll (i.e. it says it doesnt
know what .exe program to use and wants me to associate
the extention) do I have to use an external unzip
program? or is there some way to make the file extention
association to the .dll file? or am i just screwed blued
and tattooed, need to quit whining and just download the
fraggin external unzip program?

AFAIK the inbuilt utility only does zip files (though it can do self =
extracting zips if you rename it from exe to zip). XP also has a second =
program that does cab files.
