I tried that, it didn't work in the following verbose way:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] transfer]$ unzip E6738v1.0.exe
Archive:  E6738v1.0.exe
  End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
  the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip:  cannot find zipfile directory in one of E6738v1.0.exe or
        E6738v1.0.exe.zip, and cannot find E6738v1.0.exe.ZIP, period.
