Hi Juan,

Here is what I do.  Others may comment.

1.  Run the installer;
2.  choose full install;
3.  tab to the list of components;
4.  by default, all of them are checked (even if your screen reader doesn't 
say so;)
5.  use your arrow keys to highlight each component one-by-one;
6.  press the space bar on the following items so that they will be 
unchecked and therefore not be installed--Winamp agent, modern skins, and 
visualization;
7.  then tab to the next button and follow the remainder of the prompts 
until installation is complete.

Now I know that some people have mixed results with this next 
recommendation, but it has always worked for me.  Unless you wish to receive 
a lot of Winamp mail, uncheck all the items in the configuration screen 
after installation that refer to receiving e-mail and then check the box 
that says: "do not prompt me for registration information until the next 
upgrade."  Then press space bar on the register later button.  At least on 
my system, I never get prompted to register again or receive Winamp or 
AOL/Nullsoft information until the next upgrade.

HTH.
