You want to have a look at Chapter 9 of TFM:
http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.15/cvs_9.html#SEC80
especially 9.2. tells you how to "rescue" your file. I would do it from
a unix machine, this is better than the other proposed solution (IMO):
[... somewhere in the repository on the unixoid machine ...]
cvs admin -kb <zipfilename.zip>
cvs update -A <zipfilename.zip>
HTH,
Spiro.
