Looks good only change its nbame from setup.exe to somthing like php403-installer.exe James, Thanks for checking it out. I take your point, but just about every Windows application I have used is installed by something called setup.exe, and some widely used applications (e.g. WinZip) treat setup.exe as a special case. That said, I'm happy to go with the tide of opinion if anyone else has one!
I would say that as long as the application is distributed in a zip file that has an informative name, that setup.exe makes more sense. Also, the new installer works well under Win98 :) --zak
