THXjay,
as Retro says, because of a block of Zippyshare in many countries, you have to use a proxy site, as I do for example from here (Italy).
In the recent past I was using proxysite.com, but lately it seems to be not working anymore with Zippy links (at least from here).
So, after a short search, I found another one working, which is feee-proxy.com.
All you have to do is to copy a regular (with https:// bla bla) Zippyshare link, paste it in the "enter url here" field, and hit "go". You're done, the Zippyshare page opens and you can download your file.
