have you tried changing the file extension to .txt, for example?

then tell the recipient to change it back to .zip

hope this works!

but then the n00b has to download winrar (or similar)...

can you not put the file up for downloading somewhere, and just email the link to the n00b?

Hi there Dinesh!
I have a bulgarian website for you that should help next time such a situation appears.

You can upload a file that is up to one gig big (lol) and then fill out your e-mail, the receiver's e-mail and type in a topic with other text (if any instructions are needed.
Example:
untitled.PNG

Sorry If I have any typos... :o

Edit:
HEY LOOK, I'M SKILLED NOW!!!

Edit 2:
You might notice this is XP.
I'm on my grandma's laptop, just doing some surf.
