I have no like for installers that don't contain (in the installer I download) 
the data they are supposed to install (I'll use them if there is no other 
way to install the program). I've already stated my reasons several times 
in this thread, but in short: I want an installer that has no dependencies 
(particularly no net dependencies) other than things like Windows (tm). I 
want to be able to archive it and know it will install the same version later, 
no matter what the rest of the world does. Most of the other uses being tossed 
about for an installer I would rather do via something else (like SVN).
