No, unzip has this to say:

Archive:  sp39596.exe
   End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
   a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
   latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
   the last disk(s) of this archive.
note:  sp39596.exe may be a plain executable, not an archive
unzip:  can't find zipfile directory in sp39596.exe,
         and can't find sp39596.exe.zip, period.

No idea why they would supply a DOS-driver with a win32 installer...

When I ran the installer, it just unpacked the files in the c:\swsetup 
directory, without asking where to put the files. But that may be a 
limitation of the OS/2 win32 support.

Best regards,

Mikkel
