You probably changed the download options by mistake. Try right-clicking on the download link & select Save Target As.

Try what Hagar suggest, sounds like it may be a file association problem.

1: open explorer (not IE)
2: find the item called 'display options' or 'folder options' (not the one on the right click menu)
3: go to 'file types' tab
4: select file type that opens automatic
5: click 'advanced'
6: below the 'action' box there are three checkboxes, for ZIP at least the top one should be checked
7: click OK for eery window you opened

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones), Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here
