Extracting Zip file save to disk

I have a zip file at a URI (such as http://www.abc.com/a.zip) that I would like to open and save a file from it to disk. Is there a way in C# to open it without saving it to disk and then saving a file from it to disk?

Thanks,

Sachin

The example of the extracting the zip file without saving the archive to the file system using DotNetZip.

private static void ExtractFromUrl(Uri uri, string directoryPath)
{
    using (var webClient = new WebClient())
    {
        var data = webClient.DownloadData(uri);
        using (var memoryStream = new MemoryStream(data))
        using (var zipFile = ZipFile.Read(memoryStream))
        {
            zipFile.ExtractAll(directoryPath);
        }                
    }
}

Use ZipFile .Net Framework 4.5 class or DotNetZip API.

ZipFile.ExtractToDirectory(zipPath, extractPath);

EDIT: You can prepare a stream or obtain byte array of URL via method of WebClient class.

string urlStr = "https://xyz.com/sample.zip";

 using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
  {
   byte []bytes=client.DownloadData(urlStr);
   using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(bytes))
   {
    using (ZipFile zip = ZipFile.Read(ms))
    {
     zip.ExtractAll(@"C:\csnet");
    }
   }
 }
