Possible corruption of installed files
I was using the installer to create installable debug build for internal use.

I added the files msvcp71d.dll and msvcr71d.dll to my script.
When I rebuilt the script twice and ran the install the resulting files in the target directory were not recognizable by Windows as DLL files.

I fixed the problem by renaming the previous setup.exe and had nsis create a new one from scratch.

Any one else have this issue?

Update:
I just did a binary compare with the supposedly corrupted installer and the newly build one. No difference. An the 'corrupted' on now installs successfully.

I have no idea what I could have done.
