>>>Martin,

>>>Thanks for your response. The program is located in "Program Files". We would prefer to not change the name to setup.exe since that is what shows up in Task Manager when the application is running. For now, we are looking into any implications of using Tore's suggestion of changing the called EXEs to APPs.

Bill, can you expand on this as it relates to Vista?

Where do u install the EXE on the server?
Location of the app's DATA files?
Do you install an update EXE into an "update-specific" folder on the server?
Location of the EXE on the workstations?
Using Inno?
