Hello all,

Thank you for all your responses to my inquiry.
We are aware that this application version 8.2.x is pretty old and PostgreSQL 
will stop releasing updates for the 8.2.X in December 2011.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/release-8-2-22.html

We also confirmed this installation issue was addressed in the latest version 
of the installer. (8.3.x and 8.4.x) However, we would like to warn endusers who 
might be affected by this issue trying to install 8.2.x versions on Windows8, 
and to direct them to install the latest version. You provided the following 
URL, but better yet is there a download site for the newer version we can 
direct endusers to?

http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy


The dialog box presented to users will look something like this.



Would this download site be a good URL for that?
http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdownload

That's not a PostgreSQL community web site, so it wouldn't be appropriate to 
send people there, I think.  However, you could direct them to the PostgreSQL 
download page:

http://www.postgresql.org/download/
