Hi Jamal: 
When downloading (and running from location) not saving the msenv2005
scripts I get the following dialog:
Setup
Runtime Error (at 7:319):graphic 617 
Internal error: ExtractTemporaryFile: The file "msenv2005[1].zip" was
not found.
OK  
Any idea why this is occuring--is this built with the november 14th
release?
Sean.

The WinBatch code that creates the temp.iss Inno Setup script now does
additional parsing to insert the specific name of the zip archive in the
dialog.  Previously the setup script assumed the zip archive had the
same name as the executable except for the extension.  The script
extracts the zip archive to a temporary directory and then runs the
command jsx.exe ZipName

If others can test, renaming an installer created with JSX should no
longer cause a problem when running the installer.
