It is not something to do by hand. You can write a simple script to
unzip the files and combine them into one big file, then import that
into AB.
If you put all the 2007 files in one directory and run this command on
Linux (probably will work on a Mac too) it will do it for you:
for f in `ls *.zip`;do zcat $f |grep -v "^<" >>2007.csv;done
It's harder on Windows because the zcat and grep commands do not
exist. I'd probably write a Python script if I had to do it on Windows.

As has been pointed out, there are links at the bottom of the page for
previous years. No continuous files.
