Here is your post.. please read it again. Your attitude is of a teacher who
insists the pupil to use
the correct terminology for technical terms, and because your real intention
is not to help him
YOU are patronizing him, telling him what he CANT do instead of helping him.
The problem is that most people dont know how to express themselves in
technical terms
not because they are stupid, but they just dont know the stuff...
Simple question: if he knew what a disassembler was would he be asking how
to open a zip?
Lol.... you are hiding behind your finger.

Bottom line, you would make a very lousy tech support!

As I said...I am posting this only because you implied things about me that
are false,
when you yourself are far worse. Leave me alone, please...

Open? You can "open" any file in Notepad. whether you can use what
you see, or even understand it, is another matter.

Zips and ISOs aren't human readable, so "opening" them won't do you
any good, you need a program that understands them. Something like
7up or Winzip for zips. Since an ISO is just a representation of a
disk, you have to mount it, not open it. (You can't "open" a disk,
whether it's a physical disk or the image of one.)

None of this has anything to do with disassembling, which is
converting an executable into assembly code. (Which, unless it was
written in assembly, usually gives you code you can't do anything
with.)
