In the above context ("make sure pk*zip.exe is ... in your system path"), it 
means that those files (pk*zip.exe) need to exist in a directory that is in
your system's search path for executables. This path is represented (in Windows 
and *nix OSes) with the "PATH" environment variable. On Windows, you can view 
your current path from a command prompt by typing "PATH". The directories in 
your system search path will be separated by semicolons (on Windows). You can 
add a directory to your system search path on Windows via Control 
Panel->System->Advanced->Environment Variables->System Variables and editing 
the "PATH" variable there.
