D 2.0 windows installer overwrites PATH variable

 I'm not seeing that behavior here (XP SP3), and I've just tested it. PATH
gets appended with directories of DMD|DMD2|DM /bin. Btw., Rapid Environment
Editor is a nice freeware app for manipulating environment variables. You
can make backups with it as well.

I will say the download in the setup is quite slow (only reaches about
100Kb/sec at times, but usually stuck around 50Kb/sec or so).
