Your web broswer might be trying to "help" and gunzip'ing it for you.
Netscape has been known to do that. Run `file`, it would say "data" if
not-zip'd or "gzip compressed data" if zip'd. Looks like an md5sums file in
that directory would help. To avoid the "smart" gunzip'ing try a different
browser or something like wget.
