Just rename the ".zip" extension to ".epub", and you can read the books. The file itself is fine, it is just the name that gets changed when downloaded.
I just tried that, but it doesn't work. When the file is downloaded, it doesn't offer me an option to do anything but save it as a zipped file. The guts of the file have no recognizable extension to change. Are you talking about changing the extensions somewhere else? When I unzip the folder, the extensions all say epub, but the nook still doesn't recognize it.
