Unzip using 7zip or WinRar, somehow many files of cgminer don't get extracted properly by the windows unzipper.

Well then it must be your settings.  :P
Maybe stratum? Wrong username/pass? Pool or solo?

I am using pool, I have been using stratum, the password and username of the worker is correct, Is portforwarding a problem?

Have you tried mining other coins? Can you post a screenshot of the GUI interface, or at least all of your current settings; minus your name and password?

check your flags. wrong space or extra space anywhere will spit connection problems instantly. in addition to a screenie of your settings, paste the text of the console here, too.
