After (require 'sx-load), the mini-buffer displays "zlib library not found". I'm on Emacs 24.4.1 on Windows.

Thanks for reporting this.
This means you need to download the zlib binary for windows.

The zlib library is an unavoidable dependency, as far as I can tell, so it's not something we can fix in the package. However, we should definitely find out the correct way of installing it, and explain it in the Readme.

Following a discussion on gitter. We believe the solution to this is to use zlib-decompress-region first (which is in 24.4), and fallback to the current method if that's not defined.

Use `zlib-decompress-region` when available (24.4+) and handle UTF-8 encoding correctly.
