a password protected file will not unzip.

It says either corrupt OR wrong password.

Anyway to tell which one?

Normally, when you see an error like that, it appears to be a generic error. If you can't unzip it with Winzip, try 7Zip.

Also, and this should be your second choice, if it is a mismatched password, there are Winzip password crackers out there, I don't know how effective they will be with the newer versions of Winzip but that might be worth a try.
