You may use the signal command. As far as I remember the second argument
can be a predefined symbol, there is one symbol which let your program
ignore the signal. But I think theres also a special command to disable
Ctrl-C. Its used in the sb05_dj2 lib, I cant remember that command. Look
in the lib sources and in the libc.a info files.

I think theres a compresser out there, called DJP. But I feel the exes
arent soo huge.

Sorry, no idea.

I dont think so.(Isnt it up to date?)

I would use the FAQ and the mail archives on Delorie Software.
