Weird, I download Linux stuff via windows all the time (on my
universities fast connection). Sometimes (like now, when I am
stuck on a machine with a software modem) I download Linux
stuff too. I put it all in C:\linux (or Z:\) then either mount
hda1 or hdb4 (my 'C:' and my zip drive, that it) and get at
what I want as /mnt/DOS_hda1/linux or as /mnt/zip. Simple. Is
that really what your problem is?
