        You could dig into WiX, which is XML based and MS' own format to
write installers. You can also opt for innosetup:

        which is free and widely used. And ofcourse you can shell out a
lot of money for installshield or wise.

        I'd say: start with innosetup, and go from there. After all:
installing software is very basic: unpack files, copy files to
destination folder, eventually create regkeys and menu options and
that's it. And as every installer nowadays uses the MS installer
service, they all basicly work the same under the hood anyway.
