Tom,
The src version is the source code; you only need that if you're going
to compile it yourself. I don't recommend this - it's a PITA and the
binaries are available already. The debug version is mainly for helping
to find problems in the PHP code; again you don't need it.
As for the .msi vs. .zip - the .msi version has an installer which sets
pretty much everything up for you. However, it doesn't include all of
the optional modules (dlls). The .zip version has all of the optional
modules, but no installer.
What I recommend is to use the .msi version for installation, then add
any optional modules from the .zip file that you might need. That way
most of the work will be done for you, and all you need to do is put the
module in the php extensions directory and modify your php.ini file to
add the module to the working extensions.
