Thought I'd share my stupidity... With .gz files especially, I've noticed that, if you use Netscape or similar browser to download snippets and/or archives, then the file becomes majorly corrupted and unusable. I heartily suggest for all the newer coders out there to use BINARY transit when FTP-ing, because for some reason, browsers seem to not like .gz files.
