ZipMagic, which makes .zip archives appear transparently
as Windows folders, can do it.
You can buy it online (www.mijenix.com) and I believe the 30-day
trial version, (which expires harmlessly), is still available.
(I tried it from a mag cover CD and then I bought it on CD.)
Here is an extract from the help file: you make your .zip
file and then convert it to a self-extracting archive.
"With ZipMagic, it is easy to convert a Zip file (.zip folder)
to a self-extracting archive. First, select the Zip file
(or .zip folder), then select the Make self-extracting (EXE)
context menu. This will start a wizard which will lead you
to the creation of the self-extracting archive:
Enter the default folder to which the files should be extracted.
