Ya I know I said I was done BUT I think I should post this one for you...
Download one more so you can read NFO files on the fly.
NFO and DIZ files are on most zip files you download..
They are info files about the program and some times how to install the program.
It's OLD DOS text format that alot of people use when they make a zip file and it 
gives you a head up about the program...
Download this free program and then install it.
When you see the 1st screen  check the 1st two items for diz file and nfo files and 
UNCHECK the one for ini files.
Then let it install and the next time you open a zip and you see a diz file or a 
nfo file click on it and the program will read it for you and put it on the screen.
Then you can copy it or print it.

From : download.com
Files that end in .NFO are plain text files that often contain very useful information 
about the files you have just downloaded. 
Always read the NFO file if you are having a problem! Unfortunately, the .NFO extention 
also has another meaning to Windows, so sometimes when you try to open these files 
you will get an error from MS System Information about a corrupt file. 
If this is the case you will also probably see the file listed with a type of "MSInfo 
File" or something similar. 
You should open the NFO file in Notepad, or any plain-text editor. More info below 
and a download site.
