It is a good idea to follow the Windows install. I found that some programs
don't automatically list themselves in the installed programs list when you
bring up the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS window, if you don't follow that route.
Just good housekeeping really, and makes sure that Windows knows exactly
what has been added to the system, and what DLL files, etc. are being
shared. Then when the time comes to uninstall, it is very simple to go to
ADD/REMOVE Programs, highlight the program, and click REMOVE.

Lance,

"...do you do the normal Windows install - START|SETTINGS|CONTROL
PANEL|ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS and browse to the location of the setup
files?..."
No I don't.

I download all programs to C:\Downloads and install them from there.
