It was like it opens up from where ever I extracted the files to. Is this supposed to happen or am I doing something wrong???

But you would be well served to check out one of GoNorthWests '20 minute videos' where he explains things... One of those topics is installing eclipse on Windows 7, so it may help out. www.youtube.com/gonorthwest and snoop around a bit...

Since it's just an unzipping of an executable package, it doesn't have a formal install program, and as such, won't put an icon in the Programs list. You can put a shortcut there if you'd like. The video explains all! The latest Eclipse ADT bundle is what you need to Google for.
