JAWS Script Exchange, a bug?

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but hopefully there is a way to get around it.

When you create a script installer, and the ScriptInstaller.exe is generated, 
the scripts install correctly as usual.

However, if you provide the installer as a web download, and someone renames 
the installer to something that makes more sense to the user, (such as 
ScriptName.exe), an error occurs during the installation, and the scripts 
cannot be installed.

So far, I've had to warn people who are downloading the installer to not rename 
the file, which doesn't seem like the best solution.

Any ideas why it is doing this?

Thanks,

Bryan
