It's scary (of course they want you to be scared enough to buy their product) but informative.<br /><br />Many people have computers set so that if a zip file contains a program, that program will be run as soon as you open the zip file. Those spammed zip files normally contain a malware program that will put your program on a botnet so spammers will use your computer to send spam, or else a keylogger that will steal your credit card number if you buy something online, or your bank account password, etc. There's no excuse for FedEx or DHL or UPS to send you a zip file even if you're expecting a delivery.
