or use the GNU tar command...
(after you installed the GNU tar you get this extra 'z' option to decompress files)

tar zxvf file.tgz

If plain gzip and plain "tar" both hate the
file, do you really expect "[GNU]tar z" to do
better? If so, why?

If you use programs and procedures which do
not corrupt the data, there should be no
problem downloading ".tgz", ".tar.gz",
".tar.bz2", or anything else. I do it all
the time. (I don't use MSIE on Windows,
which may be a big advantage.)
