Finally found an old online pkzip 2.5 manual. Here's the format for using a password in the args of cfexecute:
<cfexecute name="C:\adobe_site\pkzip25.exe" arguments="-extract c:\adobe_site\MI20080901_031315_RES_1.zip c:\adobe_site\extracted_files -pass=bsz3xuYD" timeout="5" /> Man was I glad to see that extracted file! My life can move forward again! Thanks to everyone for your help!
