?If? I understand correctly you are attempting to scan files while still compressed prior to expanding?

If so, the combination: Symantec?s Norton System Works 2003 (auto scan) and Winzip (set to auto unzip) version 8.0 (think that is the version I use).

When these two programs are set correctly the unzipped file will write over the formerly zipped file location, thus no change in location; in theory.
