    Scan your system with a FULLY updated antivirus application as you clearly have some sort of issue here.

    Actually you may have a ZIP utility that is set to automatically do this. WinZip for example has that feature. Or it may be part of your e-mail client. As long as the ZIP file is a valid archive and the recipient can unzip it, its actually better to send a Zip file.
