Unless you are wanting to install a supplemental Cygwin package that requires cygwin1.dll and a UNIX-like environment, you'd probably be better off using an actual installer product. If you're looking for a Free, Open-Source installer, try NSIS http://nullsoft.com/free/nsis/ which is used by WinAMP, K-meleon, and lots of other projects in replacement of InstallShield. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
