From your description (and the fact that AOL is your ISP) I am going to assume that you are using a Microsoft Windows based computer.
In that case, you have at least two choices for your downloads of GCC and bzip2.
One is the Cygwin environment, which is available at http://www.cygwin.com This creates a Unix-like command line environment that runs under Win32.
Another option is DJGPP which is available at http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/ This version runs under standard DOS windows.
Both options include GCC 2.95.2 in their default packages. Cygwin also includes bzip2, while it is an optional download for DJGPP.
