Machine's been rock steady for a year:

Athlon 600 mhz
MS 6167 mobo
27gb IBM Deskstar
32mb Viper 770 Ultra AGP
128mb PC100 ram
Pioneer 10x DVD
HP CD-Writer 8200e
Sb Live Platinum
Win ME

I did see the MS KB solution but it only mentioned a Canon printer or some kind of Desktop control tool. I'm using a networked printer which is an HP Deskjet 672C. Followed their suggestion anyway of changing one of the printer's properties settings (can't recall what it's called) to RAW instead of EMF. Waiting to see if I get anymore errors. Seems to only happen when I use Winzip.
As far as a Desktop control tool, I'm using Winboost Gold.

What do you think???

Where is the file(s) being unzipped to? Are you choosing a directory or is it attempting to unzip to the Windows/system directory?

[naka-pako]

I'm unzipping it to a specified directory, I'm sure it's not going to the system directory...d

[Nighthand]

If you change the directory, do you still get the error?

[naka-pako]

I'll try when I get home. As I've posted above, I've taken some steps based on the MS KB item. It may fix the problem but then again.....d

Try uninstalling and reinstalling Winzip. Do a reboot between the uninstall and reinstall.
