I just tried it -- it seems harmless. It's an ascii animation of a short clip of the Matrix movie. Kinda cool...

<checks home folder -- it's cool, everything's still there>

The file was compressed for easier downloading & transfers. It's a very common thing to do and perfectly harmless, at least this time around.
