Get a zip application such as 7-ZIP and then unzip either one before burning to a CD.

Q: I downloaded a ZIP or RAR file! How do I copy it to a CD?
A: The file you downloaded is an ISO image, not a ZIP file. Depending on how your PC is configured and what software you have installed, it may look like a ZIP or RAR archive, but that is not the case. You must not run/double-click/open the download, instead, follow the instructions on how to burn the download on to a CD.
