The problem is due to your use of an old version of pkunzip (Version 0.92)
The latest version of Pkzip/Pkunzip is 1.02.  It uses some different
conventions for packing files, and files created with is are not compatible
with version 0.92.  

Version 1.02 should be available on SIMTEL, and also any of your local
BBS systems.
