Is there a free program that will unzip all my files all at once instead of me having to do it one by one?

You can use winzip. They want you to buy but it's not required.

7-Zip is a file archiver predominantly for the Microsoft Windows operating system. It operates either as a command line program or with a graphical user interface. It also features integration with the Windows shell environment. 7-Zip is free software, developed by Igor Pavlov and distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). It is a competitor to the market-leading WinZip and WinRAR programs, both of which are closed source. It offers a special 64-bit version for Windows XP Professional x64 Edition. In the form of p7zip, 7-Zip has been ported for use on Unix-like systems such as Linux and FreeBSD.
The project was started in 2000 and the latest stable version is 4.42, released on May 14, 2006. Beta versions of 7-Zip are frequently made available.

Don't use WinZip unless you plan on spending $40 dollars - as soon as the free trial period expires, it is rendered practically useless by the nag screen that takes literally several full minutes before you can even open an archive (and you get this wait every time you open or use an archive.) Use WinRar - it allows you to handle and make .ZIP files as well as .RAR (which tend to be smaller than .ZIP files) and all other largely-used compression formats. It is available from http://www.download.com as a trial, but it is still very useable after the trial expires, and it has NO adware/spyware etc bundled with it.

With windows XP you can click on the file and XP will extract it. Winzip is another program but it will want you to pay after so many days.
www.majorgeeks.com will have some free ones.
