More info?)
From the zonelabs discussion, the .zip contains the .dmp files list and in
that's the case, I'd simply delete it.

Ramesh,
As I said, there is no Zone Alarm problem; there are no Zone Alarm files.
I am asking specifically about the files with double extensions -- *.dmp.zip
This does not refer to 2 different file extensions, but to files that have
"dmp.zip" as an extension.
Are those files safe to delete?
