Heres how I do it.  I keep djgpp in a directory called c:\djgpp. 
Now, when I see some interesting binary, I download it to a temporary
directory called v:\djgppt (t, for temporary).  Now, I have in my
djgpp directory the unzip32 executable.  What I do is this, I have
an icon which starts a dos window and sets up djgpp.  I double click
on my cure little "RunDJ" icon, and I cd over to my 
c:\djgpp directory, and do the following at the command line

unzip32 c:\djgppt\*.zip

When its through unzipping the binaries, I empty my djgppt directory.

Now this seems to work for me.  I am sure that the gentle people
here will correct anything I said which was sub-moronically stupid.

By the way, I do this on 98,2000 and XP Pro,  If you want a dos
(command) window, just go to Start:Run and enter command.  I think
you can aslso do soemthing similar by entering cmd.
