>>This file is downloaded using torrent software. The strange thing (and maybe it is because I don't understand how torrent program works) is that I can "open" the file within the torrent software and see all the files. But when I try to copy them somewhere I get this message that the file is too big. So it looks like the file is not corrupted.

As I mentioned in another messages on this thread that I can "open" this zip file in the Torrent program (u-torrent). Therefore the file could be ok. But it could be that the .zip extension is misleading as it is only "zipped" for Torrent program. I will read the article you suggested in another message; maybe it will shed more light.
