Indeed.
More seriously, clobbering the menu of MS-* with 1 uninstall icon/entry
per installed program has a very bad effect on reactivity of the menu,
(nearly doubling the number of I/O when computing the menu, for no real
benefit, as that shortcut is not gonna be used very often)
so current recommendation is to NOT add an uninstall shortcut and let
the removal being handled by the Parameters/ sub panel.

We used to do that with the old installer, but now that we have a
combined one I didn't see any point in not providing the other
binaries in case someone wanted them. The installer is smart enough to
install the right shortcut (standard, SSE2 or 64-bit) to the
appropriate binary.

I always worry that's going to actually launch the program as administrator. :-)

No, I haven't heard of that one before. Have you ever had issues with
NSIS-based installers on XP64 before? Did you see how far it got
before it says this (or is it instant?)

I'll try making some changes to the installer in the next day or two;
when I do I'll email you a link to a test you can try if you want.
