Zlib decompression - Any ideas?

Unfortunately, I don't have the original file... the files I'm receiving are
from another program on Windows that only decompresses the data in memory;
the files on disk are always in a compressed state, so the files I can look
at are always compressed.

Yeah, I've tried that already and keep getting errors that the data is "not
compressed".
