Maybe change to another OS a little more stable :)

Of course, if that is not posible, you can try 7zip instead of winzip. Or maybe the zip you downloaded is corrupted. Verify the checksums from the page where you got the zip file.

I don't have any Vista experience, but here's a shot in the dark, courtesy of google:

Or, if you have had good past experience with .zip files using Winzip+Vista, maybe try downloading a different version of squeak from http://ftp.squeak.org, like 3.9 perhaps, and see if it unzips correctly.
