If you have a Linux machine handy, just type the command "file Philip.zip" and it will analyze the file for you and tell you what it thinks it is based on an analysis of the contents (not just extension type) .. seriously, its a wonderfully underappreciated tool in Linux-land .. and it may well tell you that its a .DLL or .EXE or some other trojan'ish thing ..
