Yes, indeed, you need to keep these dll files in the application folder. To discourage the end-user from fiddling with these files, as you suggest, an installer is what you will need.

I have done well with InstallGadget, which is very reasonably priced; there is also a Mac version for making .dmg files. To your application folder, simply add a text file containing your end user license, as well as any readme files, then drag the folder into InstallGadget. This will create an .exe installer. If you are distributing this by download, you will probably then zip the installer.
