They are exe files with a zip appended. Try out the above code on your
file; it may just help you suss out what the problem is.
E.g.:
>>> import zipfile
>>> zipfile.ZipFile('xlrd-0.6.1a4.win32.exe').namelist()

['PURELIB/xlrd-0.6.1a4-py2.5.egg-info', 'PURELIB/xlrd/biffh.py',
... snip ...
'SCRIPTS/xlrdnameAPIdemo.py']


HTH,
John
