Isn't this virus fairly safe as it requires someone to actually open the
attachment(.zip) then enter a password to open the virus infected file?

I don't understand why so many people are getting infected from the zip
files as it seems you have to really want to open it to be infected.  Not as
easy as those viruses that exploited the Outlook Express preview pane and
execute just by looking at the email.
