RE: [afw-general] updated installer script

[Chris W. <chr...@co...>]

Okay, new NSI script. Modern UI, Start menu selection, welcome and finish
pages, looks pretty cool. Compiles for me with latest CVS NSIS 2.0b4. The
uninstaller actually removes most of the files now. Something I don't know
is if changes are made to the site-local lists (blacklist, etc.) if they
are reflected in templates\*.* or somewhere else. If somewhere else, I can
safely delete the templates\ folder when uninstalling. Otherwise this
works great so far.
