No, please do NOT use WinZip for that!

The DJGPP documentation specifically warns _against_ using WinZip (see 
Chapter 1 in the FAQ), because WinZip could cause grave problems due to 
the fact that it doesn't always preserve the directory structure 
recorded in the zip files, and also commits other atrocities against the 
files it unpacks.

Please use unzip32.exe that is available from the same place where you 
download DJGPP, and save you grief.
