I very much doubt it -- there are literally hundreds of zip files
containing miscellaneous programs that most people won't want to
download.  Please be more specific and say exactly what you
downloaded.

: gcc hello2.cc

What do you mean by `hangs'?  Does it stop responding?  Crash?  Or
just say `cc1plus.exe: no such file or directory (ENOENT)' or
something similar?  If the latter, you have not installed the C++
support packages.  There are two that you need -- the gpp package and
the lgp package.  Make sure you have installed those.

If this does not help, please explain more accurately exactly what
goes wrong.
