One possibility is that if you're using a web browser to download the file, some web browsers will automatically decompress the file for you - even if you save it with the same name as on the server. To see if that's the case, you might try working with the file as though you had already run gunzip on it and see if you have any success. Unfortunately, since the file name doesn't seem to give any kind of clue what kind of file it is, I can't help you any beyond that...

The best I can do is refer you to the GCC Manual (http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/) and Frequently Asked Questions (http://gcc.gnu.org/faq.html). If neither of those provide an answer to your question, please contact the GCC users' help list; you can learn more about it at <http://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html>.
