Convert ZIX to ZIP

ZIX archives are notoriously distributed on torrents sites, but are nothing more than a variant of ZIP that can be opened with a malware known as WinZIX. It is better to download the files in other format and delete .zix files. In case that you really have to recover .zix files, use tools such as such UnZixWin or UnZixHTA that can be used remove all the rubbish data from these archives and creates regular ZIP files.
