The "gz" extension usually mean g-zip compressed files, try http://www.7-zip.org/download.html[^] it can handle most file format, there is also a command line version which you can use in your c# programs via Process.Start(...).

For decompressing you would need: MSDN: GZipStream.Read Method[^]

Have a look at this sample to get some idea:
GZipStream - Compress/Decompress a string[^]
