Tom,

I have a theory as to why you saw the error below.

If you've got DQSD installed and you're running it and then you
(1) Run the uninstaller for the old version
(2) Install a new version
(3) Reboot.

We do the following:
(1) The uninstaller, since it can't delete DQSDTools.dll while it's locked,
marks that file for deletion on the next reboot (via adding a line in
wininit.ini)
(2) The installer, since it can't replace DQSDTools.dll while it's locked,
sets things up so that file will be installed on the next reboot (again via
adding a line in wininit.ini)
(3) After the reboot, the operating system picks an order to process things
wininit.ini so that the new DQSDTools.dll gets installed first and then it
gets deleted immediately.

Seems like this is probably a common problem with installers. Perhaps when
NSIS marks a file for rename on reboot, it should do the work of deleting
any existing deletion-on-reboot lines from wininit.ini?  Ccin'g justin (of
NSIS fame) to see if he might understand the right thing to do.
