No worries.

Right.

No problem there.

>Should I still try to download from the ftp site?

Yup.

>And if I do, is there software I'll need to "undo" that .Z

Windows typically has an unzip routine that may be able to handle
the Unix 'compress' format.

There will be a 'meet the developers' period each day where
you can talk to the developers of each of the packages we
offer.  That would be the best time to get the information
you need.

>Thanks.
