add them into your resource as a custom type and then extract them when you
(first) run and write them to disc.

You'll need to dynamically load all of your dlls though, otherwise your main
program will not run when the dependent dlls are not available.

Secondly, if a restricted user runs your program, they may not have write
privilages to the location you want to extract your dlls to.

FindResource
LoadResource
LockResource
SizeofResource
