Alternatively, don't use the built-in Windows ZIP extractor.  Use 7-Zip 
instead.  7-Zip ignores NTFS alternate data streams, which is where the 
"Zone.Identifier" ADS information is stored that stops files from being 
executed by the OS.  The Windows ZIP extractor incorrectly propagates 
the Zone.Identifier information while 7-Zip does not.  A more correct 
approach would be for the Windows ZIP extractor to notice the ADS 
information and simply notify the user instead of pointlessly cloning 
the information to every extracted file, which causes problems later on 
like the above.
