Thanks for the information. I have researched Inno in the past but we won't switch because the 'powers that be' chose the package a long time ago and it has only happened once (with over hundreds of updates), but once is too many. Regardless of messages to close all other apps and to install from a workstation and not on the server, the user will still blame us because he thinks that we control the computer and cause it to reboot without any prompt.

I wanted to see if it was happening to others before I contact Wise...
