I personally dislike when you have SomethingInstaller.exe and no idea which version it contains (and if it is up to date according to whatever latest version the website announces). Or even worse, 2x SomethingInstaller.exe with different sizes and no idea which is latest. It's not a dealbreaker to me though. Whatever works out for you. Distributing it over Freenet would be cool. - Zero3
