Making a Custom Status Page

Hello everybody out there

I am working on a function to let my installer install over a previous install. I have the function working but the downside is that it takes a while to get everything stopped (a total of three programs need to be checked and stopped), so it appears that the installer just disappears while the function is running.

I am using nsDialogs and the default UI, and I started work on a custom page to show the status of the function. I have it looking nice, and I am trying to figure out a way to display a new label once each main part of the function is finished running.

Kind of like this:
"Checking main application"
and then:
"Checking main application" <some empty space> "Done"

Anybody have any ideas? Hopefully this is possible.
