Mike,

>I don't htink the size of an EXE makes any difference at all in its effeicency. And unless you can make an EXE 100+ mb, it shouldn't affect deployment or anything like that, considering the average hard drive size and internet connection.

When starting up from a 10 mb network, it sure makes a difference if you're loading a 10mb or a 1 mb executable, especially when the network is heavy used. The smaller the executable the faster it starts.

As for up and downloading from and to the internet. I'd rather download a 1 mb executable with a 56k6 modem than a 10 mb one.

Walter,
