So I tried to run Eclipse, having started with both the BIRT install and
the SDK alone, and each time I get the same message, copied below. Any
help would be appreciated.

Wayne,
It seems the Eclipse Project has three options here:
(a) continue to waste cycles of Eclipse folk to explain to people they
have to use a "real" unzipper, and have a LOT of disgruntled new users
fail to get started on the right foot,
(b) get Microsoft to fix their unzipper for the sake of Eclipse,
or
(c) somehow "fix" Eclipse to work with the dominant product on the market.
I am NOT an M$ fan, but I'm wondering what it's going to take to do (c).
Any thoughts?

FWIW, this is something that I've been wanting to add to my list for a
while. I did some digging a while back and just got frustrated by lack
of any real progress. Still, I'll take another poke at it.
Another thing to consider is the Eclipse Packaging Project (EPP)
proposal (http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/packaging/) which may render
the issue moot. Ideally, the outcome of the project will be an
installer-based Eclipse that comes with a bundled decompressor (and
possible Harmony-based JRE, but I may be getting ahead of myself).
Your input on the project
(news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.technology.packaging) would be great.
Thanks,
Wayne
