Ah - It's to do with the unzipping - I'm not sure why exactly, but some unzipping apps don't unpack the full set of files/folders in the sdcard folder...

As a quick check, how many folders starting "files" do you have in the sdcard folder? You've probably only got 2, but you should have 5! Try a different unzipper or check for options to ensure that empty folders get created.

[Jeff: With empty directory trees around, it might be worth considering a 'check scan' on startup to detect this, as it appears they tend to be a bit of an 'edge case' for ZIP support?]
