Well I think I may have solved the mystery. It appears this renaming of
the zip file is caused by eTrust Antivirus InoculateIT. We have this
installed to run as part of our Exchange server. It also scanned the zip
file and detected the encrypted file, then took the original zip file
and zipped it up in file with  the .zip.zip extension, it also added a
text file explaining that there was an encrypted zip file.

The error messages have gone away with 0.85
