The attached patch adds support for the ZIP file 
decryption. Right now, only decryption is supported (not 
encryption), but I will work on this as well if there are no 
problems with this patch.

The ZIP encryption scheme uses 96-bits keys, so there 
might be some US law annoyances (see http://www.info-
zip.org/pub/infozip/FAQ.html#crypto). To me, everything 
seems legit, but I am not a lawyer.
