If it's any use to you, I bought a licence for Wise Install Builder solely 
for the purpose of building the PHP windows installation stuff. I chose the 
Wise software because it seemed significantly more capable than the 
InstallShield stuff. Anyway, since it was bought for the job, I'd be more 
than happy to transfer the licence to you. Needless to say, your existing 
installshield script won't work, but you could have the Wise script I built.

I avoided the MSI stuff when I started the installer because for most users 
it meant a significant extra download from microsoft before they could use 
it, but maybe the world has changed since then and more users have the 
microsoft installation stuff already on their machines.
