I am trying to Jailbreak my iPhone running iOS5. I downloaded the iOS5 ipsw firmware, but I am not sure what file to select when I go to manually select the ipsw file on redsn0w. Do I leave it as a zip and select it like that or is there an individual file I select? Thanks for the help!!!

Just get the IPSW file and slap it onto your desktop. Select the file from there. There's no need to make any changes to the IPSW file at all. You can JB 5.0.1 as well. Not sure if you're aware of that.

I downloaded the ipsw from the redmondpie site. It is a zip folder. When I unzip it I dont see any ipsw file. Do I have to unzip it or do I leave it zipped?

Why don't you try using sn0wbreeze (beta 11)? It takes just as long to do and iBooty (the tool used to boot up the phone) doesn't require files from any IPSW.
